发帖数: 118 | 1 女博后， 40岁。为了绿卡，做了10年， 有些文章。 小孩要人辅导学习，工作上受老
板气。太他妈的苦逼了。实在不想做博后了。 想转行，请问，大家都有什么成功的例
子？
试过医药公司， HR连据你的信都懒得回。 社区大学老师也试过， 没回信。
有人建议去当中学生物老师， 又有人告诫说那些学生很差很难教。 不管怎么样， 就
是想跳出生物博后这个火坑。
数据分析， 这么大年纪了， 还能学吗？ 学好了也很难找工作吧？
大家谈谈！ | B*****l
发帖数: 1078 | 2 以下是我个人建议
年纪40有点大 转行还是有可能的。 尽量不要和生物沾一点边 要不绝对是另一个坑。
地点很重要, 如果open to relocation is a huge plus if u live in mid or
midwest redneck states.
数据分析没什么意思 就是一人一个坑 占了谁都不原意走 当然你也很难找到工作 找到
了工资也低。
既然都考虑到了数据了 试试看CS, 在家工作也行 ppl might say CS是年轻饭, who
gives a fuck, if all ppl think is the job market for their major 20 years
before they even start learning, they will never accomplish anything anyway.
医药公司你没认识人apply都是浪费时间 再加上你的年龄。
老师很难 如果你中式英文口音没了可以考虑考虑中学老师 5,6万一年。 大学老师一般
都要美国毕业的 除非你很lucky. Again, depending on ur location.
Remember, anything associated with Bio is a 坑。 unless u like to work
overtime and be treated like shit and earning burger flipper salary, BUT
doing something "great" for the scientific community.
Give me a break lol. | m*********u

20年生物博后最靠谱的转行经验谈(He will share his experience in this
Wednesday's webinar. Let me know if you want join. Thanks.)
Dear Laotu Laoshi,
I am writing this letter to share with you a good news that I've got an
offer last Friday after my very first interview. This is a 4-round interview
full of technical and behavior questions, but I managed to impress the
recruiter, hiring manager, team members, and CIO. The job title is BI
consultant and the job will be mainly on dimensional data modeling (EDW) and
data integration solutions, which are my favorites, in financial area. At
the end I successfully negotiated the salary. Now I have accepted the offer
and I am ready to start next month.
Although this is my first interview, I have been through almost everything
during the process. But I have a feel that I know how to deal with all kinds
of situations, since I have been listening the class webinar every Wed. I
am not alone. You have built a great platform for us, and we are blessed to
be part of it.
I have been hanging around the field of biology for more than 20 years. And
I have been struggling at the dead end for a while, until I found USAlaotu
training, which brings me a lot of fun. The best part of the story is that
now I could easily rely on this to make a living, in a great way. If the
growth of the UsaLaotu training school means helping more struggling Chinese
families and individuals, I would pray for Laoshi to be a billionaire ASAP.
I will be more than happy to share with classmates on the webinar (
preferably next Wed) about my experience in studying, preparing, and
interviewing, including how I mentally and practically completed the
transition from a senior molecular biologist to a senior BI developer, how I
accommodated my previous experience into the role as a database analyst,
and how I became super confident to present myself as a BI expert. I have
learned all of these from USAlaotu, and I hope my sharing will benefit many
of us, especially those who have the similar background as me and still
suffering.

发帖数: 1491 | 4 学了生物，就要知生物的好。
生物人都有很好的逻辑思维能力，做什么工作都行。
你要是博后40多岁失业，仍可能再就业，很快就能找到好工作，不用同年轻人竞争。
能做生物就接着做，不想做了，就换个方向:Industry, Healthcare, Big bank,
Insurance, Research Institute, all need people with Bio + skills.
Yes, many people successfully did it, you can do the same too!
一段视频胜于千篇废话：视频:2014-02-26 189 周会 祝贺咱国生物博士后夫妻转行，

发帖数: 1491 | 8 转会计 is a dump idea.
Accounting job is hard to find.
Even you find a accounting job, the pay is low and the politics are high.
We have many CPAs in our courses.

accounting is hard to find a job? every company need it. | m*********u

Go ahead do it.
You will know the truth from your own experience.
Good luck for job hunting!

发帖数: 281 | 13 我就是转了会计，我自己的经验，有两个难点：
1是第一份工相当难找，但是一旦入行，每天的经验都管用，越老越好找工作 （跟
postdoc正好相反）。
2是当个普通的企业会计也没什么大意思，比当postdoc工资多不了多少，升职空间有限
，唯一的好处是稳定。
比较理想的途径是进4大镀金锻炼，再进企业起点高工资高，比起生物我认为转行是值
得的。

发帖数: 1339 | 14 如果比较会跟人打交道，可以考虑房产中介，recruiter等职业。
如果精力足够旺盛，学CS或者统计或者金融工程master。至少能快速赚钱。 | N*******r
发帖数: 118 | 15 Thanks risingsunzy for the real experience.
Realtor is good if it is a part time job. Finance is hard to get started if
not in Ivy League .
Why statistics is good? Is it easy to find job? | B*****l
发帖数: 1078 | 16 didn't see this post for a while.
FOR ACCOUNTING
it's a good major, good outlook, can find job regardless of your age, or
just work from home. I have few accounting friends, the salary differs
dramatically: personal tax, corporate tax, auditing, bookkeeping.
one advise, DO NOT WORK IN AN ASIAN OWNED ACCOUNTING FIRM. hehe. good luck.
you are right, a finance degree from a non-ivy, is just like a MBA degree
from a state college ranked 100+. | r*****d

有没有转行到中学当生物老师， 到社区大学教生物的网友发表一下意见？ 有些州有
Teaching Fellows program, 两年之实习期过后后成为正式老师。好像进program不是
很难， 难的是给那些学生上课。社区大学当老师应该要强一些， 但是好像很难找到社
区大学的FULL TIME Faculty的工作。 我知道在中学或者社区大学当老师的工资不高，
但是工作应该比较稳定吧。 一年还有3个月的假期。 | g******h
