@sarahfischerm: the job market year was one of the most stressful years of my life. I hated feeling like my fate was in the hands of others and it was my job to convince them to see my worth. It wasn’t. 💛 #professoradvice #academicjobmarket #jobmarket
Facts! And ending up in an industry position is awesome—I have many PhD friends out there crushing it and they’re happy with their lives!!! I think we sometimes act like if you leave academia you won’t thrive and that’s not true ❤️
