“Each new day is a blank page in the diary of your life. The secret of success in turning that diary into the best story you possibly can.” – Douglas Pagels

I’m fresh out of grad school and armed with a Ph.D in Biochemistry. I am ready to take on the world.  I defended six months ago and took some time off to relax.   I’ve been searching for a job in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical field, and while I was optimistic at the start, my motivation is starting to waver. I refuse to lose this optimism, but I realized after talking to NS that I needed to properly prioritize and be accountable on my efforts in finding The Job. Hence, the birth of this blog. Not only will I write about my trials and tribulations about The Job Search, but also use it as a log to keep track of things that I’ve applied to. Read on while this blog chronicles my transition from being a student to a working woman.
