Welcome to the PhD Survival Guide Podcast! What are transferable skills and what are some key general takeaways from your time in grad school that you can use after you graduate? I had the pleasure of listening to a great presentation by Dr. Agnes Karmaus at the SOT meeting this year and wanted to share what she talked about with all of you! We talk about the importance of communication, networking, confidence, and much more. By the end of this episode, you will have a good idea about what is needed to further your career, whether it be in academia, industry, or government. We are also on Apple Podcasts!  If you enjoy this podcast and want to tune in as more episodes of the PhD Survival Guide come out, please feel free to like the podcast!
