- TB The first is really about thinking about yourself…mainly about the types of skills and expert knowledge that you have developed during your PhD. Begin to identify and articulate these skills/this knowledge. Think about the activities that you need to get involved in to maximise your chances of securing a position that is right for you. Many people think that a PhD is enough in itself but that it is not so. Both academic employers and employers in a wider context like a broad range of skills and expertise.

- CALUM Two other skills that are imperative for a successful career are networking and managerial skills. Although networking has sycophantic connotations, it will ultimately prove useful. If you talk to others you will be able to get a lot of information you might not otherwise have, eg when that prime job is to be adverstised, what is the best time to submit that grant/paper eg everyone tries to get their paper accepted by the end of the year so there is more competition in December, what your competitors are doing. If you leave a good impression, people will remember you when it comes to thinking of potential seminar speakers (more exposure), lab to which they send their good PhD students as postdocs (good staff), potential collaborator (more papers). Suggest – start networking – fill in details on page will pass around so can network & support each other from today To have a successful lab you need to be a successful manager, getting the best out of your staff so that they generate good papers for you and spread the word that yours is a good lab to work in. You’ll be managing a variety of people at several different levels, which will detract from you doing your own benchwork. BUT, you are your own best resource at the beginning, so you need to be able to continue researching without ignoring your staff! Coffee
