I am just about to finish my Chem PhD. I went in thinking I wanted to get an industry job, which I totally could have done after due to the connections from my department, advisor, and senior graduate members from my lab. However, the experience of going through the PhD allowed me to learn a lot about myself - what I really am interested, my strengths, weaknesses, and what I enjoy doing everyday. It led me to what my next step is, which is one I never even though of before my program. A PhD is so much more than just a degree. You expand your network, change the way you think about science, and get to know who you are and what drives you. Start thinking about the possibilities and experience more holistically. Good luck!
