We're constantly trying to improve the quality and content. In this week's episode, Jason, Nikhil, and Abigail briefly discuss the 61% of PhDs who pursue nonacademic careers as they review the American Institutes for Research article titled "The Nonacademic Careers of STEM PhD Holders" released in April 2014. Then they interview Dr. Fatimah Williams Castro, the PhD career coach behind BeyondTheTenureTrack.com about starting your career search outside of the academy. She will be participating in the "Beyond the Professoriate" virtual conference taking place on May 3rd and May 10th 2014.
