@verymessyjamie Both can progress straight through to an undergrad. If someone hasn’t got the A Level grades required or may not have appropriate subjects then a foundation course is an excellent entry route.
@KellMcRae Your expertise and knowledge will come overtime. Get to grips with all the orientation stuff. Having a good start on organisation will go a long way later down the line.
@academic_exit Understanding the transferability of your skills to different roles is pivotal!
Even if you don’t hit all the criteria or don’t have specific experience APPLY!
Skills gained during a PhD & the level at which you have implemented them cannot be learnt/attained over night.2/2
@academic_exit I knew where I wanted to work so I looked at the skills I had gained & expertise (practical experience & understanding). Then I started looking at roles, with a very open mind, that related to what I was interested in/passionate about and the above skills were transferable to.1/2
@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice Yes, a lot of universities have similar policies that inhibit PhDs from taking up full time positions until they complete (submit revisions, graduate…) or for a period of time after.
@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice About a month specifically preparing BUT remember…
You’ve been working on this and have been immersed in your work for many years already.
The conferences, the presentations, the questions, the discussions, the publication process, review panels…
YOU KNOW YOUR STUFF!

@academic_exit If you see a role, apply! Specific experience is not always more favourable.
The skills you gain and the level at which you have used them sometimes far outweigh experience in the field.
@academic_exit No, I’m on my second role since leaving academia. Understanding how skills gained from my PhD could be transferred was pivotal when writing my application & in my roles. 1/2

@JenAyoade@PhDVoice Prior: Practice with different audiences, know your https://t.co/ogXJBlz8xu’s okay not to know answers to questions so have some general responses ready
During: Stay calm, speak slowly & ENJOY IT! People have chosen to listen, they are interested. They want to hear you.
@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice Write first. Your content should be as non-biased as possible and choosing the journal first could impact your stance and/or direction.
Once you have your content, you can change the format to multiple journals if necessary. Referencing software will save you a lot of time.
