PhD applications: A thread
So I applied to approximately 30 PhD positions over a span of a year and got offered 3 positions by the end. I would like to share my experiences and how the process has been. What I learnt from it and what you can learn from my experience!! (1/n)

Every year I read a lot of grad school applications from accomplished people that don't give me the info I'm looking for. It feels like a major hidden curriculum thing. So here's (my opinion on) how to write a great Statement of Purpose/Research for a PhD program. 🧵 1/

Yesterday was my last day of working at Google. Perhaps this comes as surprise to you twitter folks, as I haven't widely announced that I left academia to try something new. Here's what I learned in 9 months as a Data Analyst who (temporarily) left Astronomy for Big Tech. 1/n

[Academic Chatter™ @AcademicChatter]

We're working on a new Academic Chatter website that will also act as a place to house things like useful tools, skills, tips/advice etc. I'm also creating a page where I refer to other Twitter (or other platform) accounts/projects. 1/4

PhDs can be challenging and public discourse tends to focus on the negatives.

To bring back some balance and positive momentum, this group of students sought to highlight the positive elements of the PhD experience. #AcademicChatter #PhDChat https://t.co/JatTc7cnIe
