From the Data Science panel: ringing endorsement of the Insight Data Science Fellows Program as a way to transition from academia to data science. @InsightFellows #phdpathways #careereducation #datascience
Wisdom from the Communications, Writing, & Editing panel: “Most of us have imposter syndrome. Never look at a job and say, ‘Oh I could never do that.’ “ #phdpathways #careereducation
More insight from #phdpathways: remember to take advantage of Stanford’s resources and network while you’re here!
Insight from the Galleries, Libraries, Archives, & Museums panel: self-reflection about your goals and passions during the PhD can be difficult, but is crucial to finding career fulfillment. #phdpathways

Terrific tips for organizing Information and Your Time during the job search. My faves: batch your time to keep from switching gears too often, and Keep track of how you spend time and reassess periodically. From @bookmobility via @insidehighered

Perceptions need to shift from "PhD = knows a lot about one thing" to "PhD = committed to life-long learning." Employers often overlook the fact #PhDs are usually dedicated to learning all sorts of new things - & learning fast!

Phone interview tip. Put post it notes with key ideas you want to convey on the wall. And notes to yourself like “Slow Down!” Standing while talking gives you more energy and allows you to gesture.
Here it is in action!

You are NOT ALONE in the things that you feel - with regard to grad school, your PhD, your career prospects, or your confusion over what to do next. The PhD can be so isolating - life after it does NOT have to be that way.

“You never know what skills you will leverage later in your career.” “There are very interesting people doing very interesting work.” Said a European Historian now working in banking. Eyes & minds blown open.
This is what I love about @BeyondAcademia @PhDPathways #BeyondAc19

Mindset shift about work product: from “perfect as possible” to “minimal viable product”. That’s a challenge for PhDs.

Key skill is communicating. If you feel you are communicating too much, with your team and clients, it’s probably just right.
