Why Industry Employers Do NOT Care About The Technical PhD Skills On Your Resume

By: Nikolett Biel, PhD

Work on effectively communicating your work in various mediums, start collaborations with scientists outside of your lab and build a network of industry professionals.

To find an industry job, PhDs need to put time and effort into diversifying their job search strategy and use multiple sources if they want to ever make it in front of a hiring manager. Here are the top 3 sources for PhDs looking to expand their career search.
