For Academics—Coaching

Your Guide to Breaking into Tech

I have been helping out hundreds of graduate students, post-doctoral researches, and faculty who are seeking to transition from academia to industry since my own transition. I know first-hand what a daunting process it can be, especially for those with non-STEM backgrounds. I will help you

  1. Transform and optimise your research skills, teaching experience, and publications for industry for data analytics, data science, machine learning, AI product roles.

  2. Convert your Curriculum Vitae into an high impact one-page resume, based on thousands of resumes I have screened.

  3. Optimise your LinkedIn profile and online networking. This is a big shift for you, and you need to cultivate a new audience.

  4. Mock interviews, covering the whole funnel consisting of recruiter, hiring manager, technical and behavioural stages.

  5. Negotiate offers that goes beyond merely asking for more money (i.e. understanding equity, more PTO, flexible arrangements).

Breaking into tech from academia can be a transformative career move that offers new challenges, rewarding work, and competitive benefits.

Let’s explore how I can help you achieve them.
