PhDs - No job candidate ever meets 100% of the criteria when they're hired. And that's a good thing. It means they have room to grow in the role. So, if you're looking for industry position and don't have industry experience? No problem! Show that you're eager to learn and develop and that's half the battle. 🔁Pass it along - repost to help a friend :) ________________________ Are you a PhD, PostDoc, or Midcareer Researcher struggling to get a job in industry?

One of our PhD customers came to Angela with multiple jobs she was excited to apply for, but she felt her resume wasn't quite where it needed to be. When Angela read her resume, it read like any other job applicant: "Quick to grasp new, unfamiliar biology topics by leveraging strong analytical skills and research expertise." It showed none of her warmth and positive energy. Angela advised her to use language that spoke to those strengths. The adjusted language not only helped her application stand out, but helped her land the position and conditions she wanted: "Passionate about simplifying technical sciences for the general public to dispel misinformation, empower informed choices, and spark curiosity in all ages." Helping someone find their value is life changing. For you & them. This is why we help PhDs make the academia to industry leap. ------------------------------------------------------------ Need help with your resume/CV? Reach out or check our website out.

Your PhD degree isn't valuable in industry unless... You can articulate how your skills apply in an industry context. As a hiring manager, It's difficult to tell just from a resume how or how well skills have been applied without that information. Supplying contextual information helps us differentiate you from other candidates. 🔁 Repost to help a friend :) _______________ Are you a PhD, PostDoc, or Mid-Career Researcher struggling to get an industry job?

As an early career researcher, or someone in the final stages of their PhD, a perennial question on one’s mind is “what’s next?”. This question, while completely natural, can cause anxiety, stress, and doubt. In this webinar, experts break down myths, expectations and approaches to finding the right research career. Chiat Cheong and Ralph Meulenbroeks discuss research career options outside of academia, provide a strategy for targeted career orientation, and help you identify the positions that suit you, giving you fulfilment in your work. You will come away with awareness of the professional value of your PhD, knowledge of opportunities which exist for PhD graduates, ways of finding your intrinsic motivation, and strategies of identifying jobs that suit you. #Elsevier #ResearcherAcademy #PhDCareers #EarlyCareerResearchers #LifeAfterPhD #ResearchJobs #PhDGraduates #PhDOpportunities #PostPhDLife #CareerStrategy #PhDToIndustry

I don't like the term "early career researcher". Many "early career" researchers are postdocs with several years of professional experience in/out academia, have a good publication record and have worked in different research teams or institutions, often in different countries. They are not unexperienced people that need further training, they just haven't secured a permanent position yet. Although there are benefits in the form of grants and fellowships only available to early career researchers, the term "early career" also contributes to the infantilization of researchers and to classify them as unfit for higher level positions. If you do research, you are a Researcher and should be called just that. This is an opinion based on my own academic journey and previous experiences. What are your thoughts?

Have you hired former post docs into roles in your organisation? Or perhaps you are a former post doc whose line manager might be interested in helping with this important project? Your insights wld be invaluable to future researchers. #researchers #postdoccareers #careerchange
