Shoutout to every early career scholar who has not heard back from any of their job/post-docs they’ve applied to - we are with you and you are not alone dealing with the excruciating silence and very cruel process #phdchat#AcademicTwitter#AcademicChatter#gradlife
Scientific journals should add a section called "um, so...what's the catch?" in addition to abstract, intro, results etc. in their submission templates

Find yourself an advisor who cares for your life outside of work, not just for the kind of research they expect you to produce #phdchat#AcademicTwitter

Thank you for sharing your story @cynth_malone. If academics genuinely want to make the grad school environment more inclusive, we need to better support amazing early career researchers like Cynthia.
if only we knew how prevalent rejections are across industry and academia, we can alleviate some feelings like it’s our failure

The hardest lesson in grad school is to know that feedback on my work say nothing about my qualifications as a scholar. Criticism is directed at the work, NOT me, so I should not take it as me being a failure.

Imposter syndrome is an academic normal and should not be. In industry, I had imposter syndrome only in my first year of working. Many years into academia, however, and I am still feeling it. This is simply unacceptable.

Furthermore, it is embarrassing that people who feel it are the ones often blamed, that it cripples their personal life in a way that creates a negative feedback loop of feeling failure, and that academia is silent about it.
