==> Noah Smith of Bloomberg writes that American Employers Are Hung Up on Hiring Ph.D.s. But I’ve also seen some social media echo from Ph.D.s saying things like “well, actually, my Ph.D. has mostly felt like a liability.”
This resonated with me a great deal: Whenever I join a new workplace, I feel like building credibility is an uphill battle where I fight against the ghost of someone who worked there before who had a Ph.D. and who fit the stereotype of the dysfunctional academic.
I wish that, just because I can do one type of thing well, people wouldn’t jump to the conclusion that I can’t also do another type of thing well. As in: Just because I understand math, please don’t jump to the conclusion that I don’t understand databases and can’t write clean code. Just because I can see the “right way” to solve a problem doesn’t mean I can’t also appreciate a cost-efficient way of solving 20% of the problem for 80% of the benefit.
