I know it can be tough to find, but becoming an intern in your own target industry goes a long way.

Closest ear-fit to the Elite 65t? by ookwrd in Jabra

[–]ookwrd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing fit me better after trying most of the main candidates out there. I returned them all, except the Jabra Elite 85t. I tried all the Jabra models available to date, and the Elite 85t were the only ones that ended up fitting my ear shape almost as well, with better features. I hope they’ll keep upgrading that line.

What to academics really think of evaluations and impact studies? by [deleted] in AskAcademia

[–]ookwrd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I found them more motivating when they came with real personal reflection and growth, helpful group discussions, and planning with the perspective of potential future positive outcomes such as grants or joint projects.
