I reached out to Steph McReynolds, Librarian for Business, Management and Entrepreneurship, a curator of an excellent research guide on careers, who walked me through her research's fascinating resources. What followed were some ways of learning about companies and opportunities that I didn't know about!

    We have talked about how to get the coveted tenure-track job on Gradcast, but we've never really discussed what it's actually like to get tenure!

    Private High School Teaching with a PhD

    I've known Allison Alberts, Ph.D. (English Literature, Fordham University) since our days in grad school together--I owe her a ton for all the reviewing and constructive conversation about my work to this day! I was delighted, then, to have her on the podcast talking about her career as a private high school English teacher, since many people are interested in finding ways of teaching that are not necessarily at the college level. Allie shares about her transition from grad school to teaching and offers some tips about how to thrive in this kind of role.

I was able to learn a little more about her and her passion for finance in advance of her visit, and I hope you'll give it a listen!
