QUOTE(pixie1989 @ Apr 7 2017, 08:57 AM) I have submitted my thesis in biological science for PhD study last month. Now I am jobless without any income. I already went for several interviews but got turned down because they don't want to hire people who wait for viva voce. Has anyone had any experience? What do you do when waiting for viva voce? Nonsense. I got hired before my viva, with a full contract to boot. Keep applying elsewhere. |

Maybe I should lie about my 'waiting for viva' next time. Btw , I don't have Masters Neither did I. I was a fast track student. I applied and was given a Masters level salary with a clause for an increment upon issuance of my PhD conferrment letter. Just be honest, it isn't an issue. Maybe that specific employer had prior issues with graduates who bolted as soon as they got their degree. |
