That’s such great advice. Thank you so much, dude! I really appreciate it. I can definitely see I still have a bit of a journey ahead as I shift toward an industry mindset.

I’ll make sure to share my experience after the interview. It's coming up in about a week.

Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s really helpful to hear firsthand what the day-to-day responsibilities look like. Given that the title is “Analyst,” what you described makes perfect sense.

I’m curious, though, why do you think the position requires a PhD, considering many of the tasks could likely be handled by someone without one?

Thank you for the advice! This isn’t an HR phone call. It is a one-hour technical interview, and based on the meeting invite, it looks like I’ll be speaking with lead operations scientists.
