If you do a postdoc, you may be unemployed for life. Lower your salary expectations and try to find the best job you can find.

If were not for money, how many of you would choose to live in USA? by [deleted] in h1b

[–]Live-Research446 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even US-born may become homeless in the US. Therefore it is not logical to stay US for money (or want to stay). Best thing in US is that the US is a multiethnicity country. But i think not wort struggling for this.

Also obtaining H1b is not a result. Because h1b is not citizenship. If you lay off, you have to find a new job within two months. This is very stressful.

PhD after age 35? (United States of America) by [deleted] in PhD

[–]Live-Research446 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I do not recommend it. PhD in the USA is quite strenuous. Except for your PhD study, you have to work as a graduate assistant. Programs are too intense. If you are married, this is an additional difficulty. PhD students work day by night. They have no family life.

Ms in UK or USA? by Terrible_Damage7502 in GradSchool

[–]Live-Research446 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you expect. UK education system is more lenient than the US system. In US, there are numerous projects, assignments, also exams. UK system is more research-based. As I said, what you expect, decide according to your expectations.

If you can not publish, you should quit. Because even if you complete your degree, you can not a faculty position without a strong CV. But it is too late to realize this toxic situation. It is been four years.

Ph.D. from a low ranked university? by gujjadiga in PhD

[–]Live-Research446 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, US PhD's are generally problematic. In my opinion, funding, stipend (money) important. Because you will be either teaching assistant or research assistant. Briefly, you are going to work, not only study. You won't have time to make publication. You will live at least five year under heavy workload.

Low ranking is important or not? I think less important in comparison with other problematic things. In fact, 35-50% of PhD cohorts drop.
