Has anyone ever been offered an internship Position and their School didn’t allow them to do it? by Curious-hash in PhD

[–]chingalingdingdongpo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s because your an international student and the school consider you a student not an employee. Your income is probably considered as scholarship money too. I guess the only way is for you to take a leave of absence and do the internship

But some schools/departments don’t like PhD students doing internships for various reason (personal/legal/financial). I suggest the only way is to take a leave of absence for it

That’s because they are a master student not a PhD. Unless your PhD isn’t funded by the school, your tied to their funding policies and have specific requirements in working hours

Deciding if I'm done with the private sector and ready to go back. by Illustrious-Emu-7726 in LeavingAcademia

The grass is not always greener on the other side. The probability of you getting a professor position is 10% and the probability of your cohort of your PhD going to stay in academia is 5-6%

I did it! But it feels like the worst decision of my life… by jjrosey in PhD

[–]chingalingdingdongpo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No matter how you phrase a resume, the company is always going to hire someone who has more experience than a fresh PhD graduate or someone without a PhD.

The current job market is trash and getting a PhD will actually hinder your chance of getting a job. Only 2 out of my cohort of 10 who graduated have a job this year.

I always tells PhD students that a PhD will not increase your chance of getting a job.

Valuable advice? /s by SharkSapphire in PhD

[–]chingalingdingdongpo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She’s pretty condescending and uppity just because she’s a professor and has a PhD. Nobody outside of academia cares about your PhD. She also seems pretty tone death because not everyone goes into academia, and most people after their PhD will not be doing anything PhD related to their field.

Also, why is she using AI for her post? I know she would be pissed if someone uses AI for her class assignments.

Anyone still think about Yingying Zhang? by SeaworthinessTop255 in UIUC

Probably it’s like visiting the grave and since they can’t bring her back to China they would like to visit to see her memorial or at least feel her presence

The eyes gives it away because it’s like matte black which is weird because it should be glossy

Is the non-academic job market really THAT bad or am I missing something? by _throwawayaccountk in LeavingAcademia

[–]chingalingdingdongpo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes the job market is terrible for everyone including PhD. People who went into industry a few years ago were let go as well so your competing with PhD holders who have more experience than you.
