How I Went from Physics PhD to Data Scientist (Spoiler: Networking)
I talk about the job hunt I had last year following the completion of my Physics PhD at UC Irvine. It was a long process that finally resulted in me starting my current job 4 months following the end of my PhD. I discuss how I approached getting this job, some mistakes I made along the way, and ultimately how networking was the key factor in securing the position.

    This was super helpful, thanks for sharing Kyle! Just got my masters in Scientific Computation and Applied Math and beginning the job search is super stressful.

    I'm currently looking for an industry job and it's tough out here. I think your advice about knowing someone is probably what I need to actually get my resume read by an employer.

    • @KMKPhysics3
      @KMKPhysics3 2 дні тому

      I can totally empathize with that. Obviously, I only have my own experience to go off of, but I seriously think the only people who read my resume were the people at my current job before they hired me. Jobs now receive dozens to hundreds of applicants, so they use a lot of AI filters to do a lot of the resume reading and getting rid of those that don't seem to closely align with the job description. One thing that started happening to me was feeling that I was unemployable and that I had wasted all those years for my degrees. Don't let that happen to you! You are very smart and talented, and unfortunately the way the world currently works makes that very difficult to get that across to potential employers!

    • @KMKPhysics3
      @KMKPhysics3 2 дні тому

      I spent my PhD doing Astronomy/Astrophysics mostly, and I didn't really want to work in an observatory after graduate school. Also, based on my experience as an undergraduate where I did experimental condensed matter physics research, I didn't really enjoy the lab setting that much, so that was a no-go for me. And finally, I don't think I'm quite adept at calculations to be a theorist either, so *shrugs* a pure physics job didn't seem like the best route to go. I did enjoy the programming/data analysis/data modeling aspects of my PhD, so I wanted to do something that would take advantage of those skills I had developed.

    I just got accepted into grad school for physics and I've already decided I don't want to be an academic afterward. There's never been a time in my life that I haven't been in school, so it'll be nice to be done with it. I just want to work in a lab somewhere, and a PhD is the only way I can get any of the fun researcher jobs.

    Just a piece of unsolicited advice for you. You could still teach high school after you get your PhD (until you get your permanent teacher's license). It would give you that extra pedagogical edge that many pure academics lack at the university level and could make you more competitive going back into academia in the long run. There are alternative teacher certification programs to gain state licensure these days and you'd be a shoe-in if you put in the effort. Cheers and best wishes finishing your PhD.

    GOAT is definitely Gauss. Then Euler, Archimedes, Riemann, Newton. Then probably Leibniz, Poincare, Hilbert, Galois, Abel, Lagrange, Laplace, d'Alembert, the Bernoulli family, Euclid, Legendre, Descartes, Grothendieck, etc. Then probably Cauchy, Fermat, Fourier, Pythagoras, Wiles, Hardy, von Neumann, etc. Tao? Haha. Really nice person, really intelligent, great scholar, but he's not there.
