Every single job I've had since my first internship in college, I've found through connections. I have also been surprised that in some cases, connections that I least expected were crucial in helping me find new opportunities. For example, I am about to start a new role that in a lot of ways, is my dream job. A few months ago, I connected with someone that used to be on my team at a different company. We only worked on the same team for about 2 months, and 5 years later, ended up working at another tech company in Seattle. He ended up being the hiring manager for this new role, and after passing the other interviews, I got the job. \n\nI would say the most important thing when starting your career is to define what you want your brand to be, and what you want to be known for. This will help give you guidance on what activities and events to prioritize, books to read, etc. \n\nIt's also essential to be mindful of the impression you leave with others. While networking is essential to building your career, it's important that it's also backed up by a reputation you feel proud about. \n\nAs a student, I remember this feeling like an incredibly daunting task. It made it easier for me to find a group I could relate to. I joined ALPFA, an association for Latino Professionals that work across various business disciplines. I would recommend finding an organization that speaks to you, and begin practicing your networking skills there. </s>" }

As a woman of color, I am concerned about being marginalized in the workplace. #scientists Keywords: productivity, workplace, gender, marginalized, woman[/INST]\n<p>Gender differences in access to economic opportunities are frequently debated in relation to gender differences in labor market participation. participation focus on productivity and earnings—for two reasons. First, a focus exclusively on labor force participation provides only a partial picture of women’s and men’s experience in the labor market. Far from being a simple decision about whether or not to join the labor force, participation in market work involves reallocating time across a variety of activities—a process that can be difficult and costly, particularly for women. And a focus solely on participation masks gender differences in the nature and dynamics of work. Second, despite significant progress in female labor force participation over the past 25 years pervasive and persistent gender differences remain in productivity and earnings across different sectors and jobs. Indeed, many women around the world appear to be caught in a productivity trap—one that imposes significant costs on women’s welfare and economic empowerment today and serious disincentives to invest in the women of tomorrow. Despite lower earnings and productivity, women are not worse farmers, entrepreneurs, and workers than men. We argue instead that gender differences in labor productivity and earnings are primarily the result of differences in the economic activities of men and women— although gender differences in human capital and in the returns to worker and job characteristics also play a role.</p> </s>" }

You have shown a lot of initiative that this will help you go far. Board development is one of the most important things for a new organization to focus on. Members of your board help you establish credibility and ideally open their networks to you, both to raise visibility and of course, funds.</p><p><br></p><p>While community financial institutions are not my area of expertise, I will give you some tips that should be helpful in general. As your main need is for this board to be a funding/fundraising board for a community financial institution, that arena is where you need to look for individuals to invite onto your board. First, look at your own networks:</p><ol><li> Are any of your friends, community members, relatives, friends' relatives in finance? Can you approach them with your idea, see what they think and then invite them to join your board? </li><li>Look at similar institutions - community financial institutions (CFIs). Are there individuals on their boards that you can invite onto yours?</li><li>Once you have a core group of individuals on your board (not all need to have finance backgrounds - some can have HR experience or be from the community you are trying to help), then you need to put a fundraising plan in place. It would be helpful to have at least one board member who has fundraising experience. The fundraising plan should have concrete steps as to how the organization is going to reach its initial goal ($500,000), what is the timeline, what are the steps, etc.</li><li>Once you have your plan, then each member of the board should be encouraged to contribute and to help with fundraising in any way they can. Your plan should have options for commitment - dollar amount, amount each board member will help raise, what networks they can introduce you to, to help fundraise, etc.</li></ol><p>Board development should be customized for each organization as it is important to get a good mix of people on the board, and who hopefully have good chemistry working together. Your board chair should be the person you work closely with to help you keep other board members focused on their commitments.</p><p><br></p><p>Being at Harvard should help you access alumni networks, ask your professors for ideas on who should be on your board (perhaps one of them would agree to serve). Having a couple of big names helps attract others.</p><p><br></p><p>Hope this is helpful - wish you the very best!</p><p><br></p><p><br></p> </s>" }

As with most excellent questions, the answer is - it depends. What does it depend on? A couple things:</p><p><br></p><p>1) Could your invention be a business? - Not all inventions can. Some inventions might solve a problem in a way that's superior to any other, but if it can't be scaled (e.g. can't be manufactured in a way that brings cost below price by a sustainable margin, is not sufficiently differentiated from competition to attract customers, market of potential customers is not large enough to justify start-up costs, etc.) then there's no business. Keep in mind though - just because one person may not be able to turn an invention into a business doesn't mean it doesn't have value. An invention could be patented and then sold (or licensed) to a company with complementary characteristics from which value could be derived from synergies between the invention and their existing product (e.g. the company already has an established presence in the target market of the invention, the company manufactures their existing product in a similar way such that existing infrastructure could be utilized). </p><p><br></p><p>2) Do you want to be an entrepreneur? - If your invention could be a business that you could start yourself, the next question to ask is whether you want to be an entrepreneur. Successful entrepreneurs often work long hours for long periods of time trying to get their businesses off the ground, and even then success is scarce. Read about successful entrepreneurs (and unsuccessful entrepreneurs) to learn more about the sheer size of the risks and rewards involved, and whether such a lifestyle works for you (one insightful resource from an experienced entrepreneur - http://www.paulgraham.com/articles.html)</p><p><br></p><p>After careful reflection, if you're leaning toward 'yes' to both questions, then starting down the path of launching a business is next. If not, then selling (or licensing) your inventions to another individual or company with the means to bring it to market might be the best path. Whether you decide to start your own business or sell / license your invention as is, you'll likely want to apply for a patent. Patenting a product is not cheap (https://www.legalzoom.com/articles/how-much-does-a-patent-cost), but it's likely much cheaper than costs needed to launch a business. Here's a good article I stumbled across that may be helpful on the topic of applying for patents (https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/204918).</p><p><br></p><p>I'm far from an expert on this topic, but hopefully these thoughts help you find a path to more relevant resources.

In my opinion, this question is more important the higher up the academic world you climb. As an undergraduate for my first A.A., I went to a community college that I could afford while working in the writing lab. Undergraduate education is somewhat uniform in terms of the type of general education classes required. For me, I looked more at what was important to me in a school for my BA I wanted to teach, so I selected a college that specialized in teaching. I stayed at the same women's college for grad school, because I loved the professors who already knew me and the work I was doing. They challenged the heck out me in grad school! Probably, because by grad school, they knew my weaknesses and my strengths. I returned to community college for a second AA degree because the college and the students, staff, faculty, and admin were all soooo amazing. \n\n4. I have noticed some students attend schools because their parents did. In my opinion, the question here is: \"Are you pursuing the work you really want to do\"? None of my parents had degrees, so I selected a women's college for my advanced education, because I was influenced by a professor who knew I wanted to teach. The single BEST decision I ever made!

Our mission was to attract women to the college of business, develop them through various workshops and speakers, and successfully launch them into the workforce upon graduation. Does your college have a women's organization for your major? If not, have you considered starting your own? Start talking to an adviser or mentor about this! I was friend's with the woman who started the organization at my school and all it takes is an idea and passion to help you implement it!</p><p><br></p><p>If you are apart of a woman's organization and feel you're not doing enough, look into Zonta Club. It's an international organization whose mission is to empower women through service and advocacy. I'm a member and love getting involved in the volunteering and fundraising events. Here's the international website: https://foundation.zonta.org/</p><p><br></p><p>My last piece of advice would be to read \"Lean In.\" This will spark or increase your energy to really understand the gender gaps that still exist in today's society.

Find out if there is an association on campus that is focused on those occupations (i.e Business club, Nursing association, etc,). Start networking on and off campus. Talk to the Career Services department at your school and see if they can help you with finding summer internships. Treat your internship like a job. When the internship supervisors see how well you are doing (and you need to well), they may hire you, but in the event that it is not in their budget, you know have credible people in your field who you can use as references.

I would say one of the biggest struggles most people face when starting college is time management. This is often the first time they are away from home and don't have anyone telling them what to do and when to do it. This is a very exciting, but also dangerous, thing. It is very easy to get caught up in socializing, relaxing, and making memories and therefore letting academics slide a bit. I found the easiest thing to do was make a concrete schedule each week of assignments, both ones due that week and ones due in coming weeks (or months) that needed continual work. This helped me prioritize my schoolwork first and then let everything else fall into place.\n\nI hope this helps a bit! </s>" }

I agree with the others that responded to your question, and I think you are on the right track trying to balance the cost to benefits. I worked in the student loan industry and know first hand how important it is to have a career plan in place or at least a passion identified prior to borrowing too much money. Depending upon your goals, think about related careers and whether or not higher education is for you. Some ways to cut costs are trying community college in your first and second years if you are not sure, and you can always transfer to a more expensive school after one or two years that has a strong program in the field chosen if you wish. Work/study programs are doable too to mitigate expenses. There are lots of options, but the first important step is to decide your passion, and then take it one step at a time. </p>\n<p>Best wishes!</p> </s>" }

Design, sales, marketing, advertising, buying, pattern making; etc? Fashion is a wide and complex industry with many parts. Before determining what you should do to get there; figure out where you want to go.</p>\n<p>Based on your goal- the next step is to declare a major that will allow you to be prepared for that role. Example: If you want to be a Fashion Designer, you want to have a major or courses in fashion design (of course), pattern-making, textiles, auto-cad, graphics, and other arts. If you want to be in on the business side of things- majors or courses in marketing, advertising, corporate communications, finance, and management would be best.</p>\n<p>Third, as a student- you want to make sure you have at least one internship under your belt by the time you graduate. Whether a short-term summer internship, or a internship that is long-term throughout the year- find one that is inline with where you want to be. If you're lucky, you may find an internship that pays. However, what should matter in the quality of the experience and the company. </p>\n<p>Find a part-time job in the fashion world. Even a job a Sales Associate at a store in your local mall will provide you with first-hand experience in the industry that can build your experience from the ground up, and show where you want to be. Nothing beats learning first hand.</p>\n<p>Lastly, join student organizations. Fashion and arts clubs is where you want to be. If one at your school doesn't exist, make your own!

Depending what school's program you ultimately enter, you'll likely have to have completed at least some coursework in Cultural Anthropology, Linguistics, and possibly classes related to one or more specific cultures. You may need to complete a minor in the field, or even a full degree program. The same will likely go for music - at least courses in Music Theory and Music History, and possibly performance requirements as well. A double major or double degree in Music and Anthropology is certainly worth considering.</p>\n<p>Your best bet is to look into the best Ethno grad programs - Penn, Stanford, and Florida State are a good start - and see what their requirements are. That will point the way.

A lawyer wants a delay in a case because he is scheduled to be in trial in another court that day. Some are difficult. Motion for Summary Judgement, for example. This is a very long legal document, citing numerous other cases as justification to dismiss a case for some reason or another.</p>\n<p>Sometimes the judge has docket call. This might be first appearances for parties accused of a crime, or those for who a motion to revoke probation has been filed. He will hear the defendant make a plea, and set the bond, or, remand without bond.</p>\n<p>Divorce cases, child abuse cases, and juvenile law cases can be very emotional. The judge has to apply the law, regardless of personal feelings.</p>\n<p>Judges of course also have time to visit.

{ "text": "<s> [INST] If you are a nurse can you make your own schedule? #nursing #nurse#schedule #medicine Keywords: schedule, nurse, nursing, inst, medicine[/INST]\n<p>Good question! The answer is not black and white unfortunately though. It depends on where you work and what area of nursing you choose. For example, if you choose a hospital job with shift work, you are normally hired in for a usual shift. Most shifts in hospital nursing are 12 hour shifts, but there are still 8, 10 and Weekend option only shifts. You would also get additional pay for working evening, nights, or weekend shifts. Keep in mind if you have a higher than usual number of patients admitted, or a co- worker calls in ill, if another nurse can’t be found a Nurse would have to stay over. This does give you a power of negotiation sometimes and we can be creative with this...such as, “I will work another 8 hours if I can be off on Friday.” In a free-standing surgery center that performs elective surgeries you normally have daytime hours. OR in the hospitals, you have set hours, but if cases are running long, you will have to stay over. Also for emergency cases, surgery nurses take turns being on call, for which you Re compensated a bit and higher pay if you get called in for a case. Home Care is somewhat similar. If you work in administration, Education or Infection Control, those hours are normal daytime hours usually. Doctor’s offices normally close on time. There is always plenty of overtime pay to be made. If you need a shift off and the schedule is already posted, you likely can get off if you work out a trade with your co-worker. So, we are flexible, especially if you help others out, they are more apt to help you out. However, we have to keep our patients safe as we can first and foremost. Your next steps would be to think about what kind of nursing YOU want to practice. When I was a new single Nurse without children I could work ER, evenings and nights and lots of hours. After I became more experienced in my practice , married and had children, I got into Nursing Administration as a Department Manager so I could better manage my schedule and be home with my family at the traditional times...however, one must remember that all shifts should see their manager sometimes as well. Work a late evening and begin night shift or go in early to see night staff and leave early from day shift. Flexible! Good luck in your journey! </p> </s>" }

After midterm, accounting and project management hurts me a lot. #study Keywords: study, confidence, accounting, management, inst[/INST]\n<p>Ena,</p>\n<p>Studying can be taxing on both your mind and your time. Here's a few things that worked for me:</p>\n<p>-Schedule your time: Research has shown that our brains focus best for about one and a half hours before needing a break or a reset. Try to organize your studying in 1.5 hour increments with a 15-20 minute break between sessions where you go for a walk, take care of a quick chore or chat with a friend. Then, return to your next study session. </p>\n<p>-Focus music: Check YouTube or your favorite music channels for focus music that you can play in the background while you study. This might help to keep you on task and also get more accomplished in a shorter amount of time.</p>\n<p>-Turn off all notifications: Turn off all alerts, alarms and notifications for anything (text, email, etc.) and put your phone on silent during the 1.5 hour study time. If you're working on your computer, close out your emails and all social media accounts. Almost everything you'll be notified about can wait until the 15-20 minute break, allowing you to not be distracted. The study sessions will stick more effectively and you will be able to cover more material.</p>\n<p>-Plan the material: Plan out the topics or materials that need to be covered during the 1.5 hours (this should be what is most important/what should be done now.) This way there is a good goal to accomplish by the end and you'll be able to better assess how much more or less time you may need for the topic at hand. It will also help you from jumping around too much and getting off track.</p> </s>" }

{ "text": "<s> [INST] alright so what should i do if want to enter the world of forensics? I am debating on what I've been wanting to be for a while and it changed from Lawyer to Forensic Scientist Law just doesn't interest me anymore. #forensics #pathologist #toxicology #dna #entomologist Keywords: forensic, forensics, entomologist, lawyer, pathologist[/INST]\n<p>Step 1: Choose a Discipline\nYour first step is to choose a discipline. Forensic science is a broad field, integrating various disciplines of science in the pursuit of civil justice. Professionals in this field may specialize in toxicology, pathology, physical anthropology, behavioural science and general forensics, among other specialities.</p>\n<p>Step 2: Earn a Bachelor's Degree\nYou must have at least bachelor's degrees to find employment in this occupation. Depending on the chosen discipline, students may focus their studies on the natural or biological sciences. For example, students interested in a career in toxicology may focus on microbiology, while those looking to begin a career in forensic ballistics may choose to focus on physics.</p>\n<p>Some colleges and universities offer Bachelor of Science in Forensic Science programs. Employing classroom and laboratory instruction, these 4-year degree programs combine various sciences applicable to forensic science. Courses may include:</p>\n<p>Microbiology\nGenetics\nHuman anatomy\nOrganic chemistry\nToxicology\nPhysics\nEvidence analysis\nForensic anthropology\nPublic speaking</p>\n<p>Step 3: Consider an Advanced Degree\nAccording to the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, some disciplines require only bachelor's degrees, while others may require advanced degrees in applicable fields of science or medicine. So the third step is to consider an advanced degree. Forensic anthropologists typically have Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees in anthropology with focuses on human osteology and anatomy. Forensic ondontologists must have at least Doctor of Dental Science (DDS) degrees. Forensic pathologists must obtain medical licensure from the American Board of Pathology, which requires four years of medical school and five years of combined residency and fellowship training.</p>\n<p>Step 4: Gain Experience\nForensic scientists typically work in laboratories, hospitals, morgues, government facilities and police departments. Specific job duties vary according to discipline, but forensic scientists generally conduct scientific investigations and analyse findings to reveal details about occurrences, such as deaths, car accidents, and non-violent crimes. They work closely beside crime scene investigators, officers, deputies, and attorneys. Forensic scientists may serve as expert witnesses in criminal trials, where they present their findings to juries and judges.</p>\n<p>Step 5: Obtain Certification\nThe last step is to obtain certification. Earning a voluntary professional certification may help you demonstrate your competence in your specialty. The American Board of Criminalistics (ABC) offers two levels of certification for practicing forensic scientists. Candidates for diploma certification must hold bachelor's degrees in an applicable science, have two years of experience in criminology and pass a 220-question certification examination. Candidates for fellow certification must meet all diplomate requirements, complete a proficiency testing program and pass a comprehensive exam.</p> </s>" }

Smaller nonprofits especially may not have the resources to send someone to a job fair; it doesn't really make sense to put time into that type of event when you have few openings. </p>\n<p>I highly recommend you check out idealist.org, a nonprofit job search website. By looking at job postings in your area, you can get a sense of what nonprofits are around. If you are interested in a job or internship in the near future, I would suggest you concentrate on applying to existing openings rather than contacting nonprofits to ask about work or volunteering. </p>\n<p>Of course, if you are interested in volunteering, or hoping to network with nonprofit professionals, by all means reach out to folks at local nonprofits. I'd just suggest you keep in mind that many nonprofits are extremely busy and people may not always be responsive to you if you reach out with general questions. It's not necessarily that they don't want to assist you, it's just that nonprofits get a variety of emails from prospective volunteers/interns/staff and it's hard to have time to connect with everyone. </p>\n<p>However, if you are interested in networking, you should definitely give it a try! You may have more success if you tell them (briefly) a little bit about your background, including what school you attend, what you're interested in studying, and why you want to learn more about the nonprofit field. Tell them what interests you about their specific nonprofit and its mission, ask if they would have time for a call or meeting, and thank them for their time and for considering your request.</p>\n<p>Good luck!</p>\n<p>Kate</p> </s>" }
