SciPhD really worked!
All the skills learned and examples offered are quite relevant for your applications to industry positions.
Also, the self-evaluations in the course are helpful to point your efforts in the right direction.
Thank you for all, Randy, Larry.
See you soon!

Hi Randy, I am dropping a text just to let you know that among the pandemic, visa on holds I got a job at Lonza, the first year in Switzerland. I couldn’t thank you enough: SciPhD was a blast, a mindshift event, it really helped me to go over my networking fear and ace my skills. I will be delighted to give back. If you ever need me at your events and think my story could help the others, please count on me! All my very best.

Thank you and Larry for such a wonderful course. I learned so much and feel so much better equipped to apply for jobs after my PhD. Thank you for instilling confidence in us that the PhD prepares us for so much and that we can have any job we want.

Hi Randy and Larry,
Thank you both so much for designing and teaching an incredibly helpful course. The career navigation process is challenging, but the skills and resources you provided have instilled new confidence in me. I will gladly report any new career success in the future, and would love to join in the future as a VIP to help the next cohort of job-seekers.
Thank you,

Hi Randy!
Hope all is well with you! Wanted to let you know that I’ve been at Regeneron now for 3 months and I love it! The SciPhD program was definitely a part of how I was able to prepare for the interview process and my current role. Thank you and Larry!

Great workshop! I learned a ton and was able to make new contacts at multiple companies I’m interested in working for in the future! Thanks Larry and Randy!
Breakout sections were useful and kept me even more engaged. The VIP reception was wonderful. I loved that the companies present were so well targeted to the audience and focused on our geographic area.
I thought the way Larry and Randy had it scheduled was perfect. They didn’t ask for active participation (speaking) on the first day, which allowed attendees to get comfortable with them and the zoom environment. This made it easier for me to contribute the following days (less nervous). Length of time was appropriate and breakout rooms were useful.
Hi Randy thank you for all the support. I got the job I wanted with Flamingo! Thank you! SciPhD is a phenomenal program both in person and online.

I would highly recommend SciPhD to every Ph.D. students. I have gained deep insights into career planning, as well as essential social and business that are often neglected in graduate schools. This is a vital program that every graduate students should attend!
