As mentioned above, many of our members are PhD candidates who do not have their PhD yet. PhD candidates in the Association are guided on how to get an industry job before they even leave graduate school.
Many of our members are not 100% certain they want to work in industry. However, they are certain that they want to have the option to work in industry. If you’re at all interested in working in industry, you have to start preparing now. Otherwise, you will be left behind. With so many PhDs graduating into unemployment or being stuck in postdocs or other training positions years and years, it only makes sense to start getting the industry credibility you need now, not later.
If you’re even mildly interested in working in industry but don’t know where to start, we’ve developed materials that will help you find the right position for you.
