I am #jobhunting! I’m looking to advance my career in psychology through full time research, data, coordinator, or administrative positions. Seeking positions in NYC or remote/hybrid. Please spread, thank you!! @PsychinOut @AcademicChatter @PsychCentral

Nonprofit CEOs need to be held accountable for their racist, xenophobic and hateful beliefs. Endorsing right-wing conspiracy theories and rejecting climate science while promoting “global justice” is antithetical.

@JodiLFord Qs I’ve had: how do you delegate responsibilities and ensure they are done on time? What is your experience with (type of data/system)? Time that you received feedback/had an issue and resolved it/disagreements?

[Jess O'Brien (they/them) @JessObrienMA]

No - and now applying to PhDs they look for authorship on my 5 years of research experience and I have to explain that no one told me I could ask for it!

[Imari Walker-Franklin | Microplastics Bae | PhD @dr_imariwalker]

Did any of your undergraduate research experiences lead to a publication with you listed as an author?

[Jess O'Brien (they/them) @JessObrienMA]

Does anyone know any #criminology or #psychology faculty studying psychopathy and psychosis in incarcerated folks? Looking for experience and potential PhD mentors! TIA! :)

Update: after a final interview on Monday, got a rejection notice Friday. Really bummed and feeling down! But, the interviewing experiences I had definitely helped prep me for something coming my way.

[Jess O'Brien (they/them) @JessObrienMA]

Any advice for getting ghosted on a job you really wanted? The hiring manager/assistant research director hasn’t responded to anything besides my post-interview thank you in two and a half weeks 😅

[Jess O'Brien (they/them) @JessObrienMA]

@DocRobPhD23 Oh ok! Maybe I’m overthinking it haha. I’ll keep my hopes up then!

[Shirley B. Wang @ShirleyBWang]

I've heard from many mentees that they're having a hard time finding faculty in suicide research taking students this year. To help out, if you're reviewing apps this year and study SITBs (or open to mentoring students w/ SITB interests), could you reply below?

Pls RT for reach!

@DocRobPhD23 Amazing!!

When I was an undergrad at a PWI, I had a white man write a letter of recommendation for me - I don’t remember for what. He was so proud of that letter, he sent it to me after he submitted it. In that letter, he told the story of one of our first interactions…

[Jess O'Brien (they/them) @JessObrienMA]

@cescobarv @pittpride_im Amazing I definitely will reach out! Thanks so much!
