• Mock interviews for job applications

ORCD Real Life Case Study 1

Problem: advancing to next career stage Intervention: advice about dealing with “difficult” PI Result:

The meeting with you tremendously encouraged me to face and deal with the issues. No one else whom I consulted with during the past 8 months gave me as accurate assessment and invaluable suggestions as you provided.

ORCD Real Life Case Study 2

Problem: no calls for interview for job applications Intervention: critique of CV and letter Result: “Thanks so much for having a career development

session with me yesterday. To tell you the truth, I was a bit lost and depressed after getting no positive feedback from my job application, but now I have a clear idea about what to work on”

ORCD Real Life Case Study 3

Problem: too junior to write RO1 Intervention: discussed mentor/co-investigator compromise, followed by grant writing advice Result: RO1 submitted and funded

“Thank you very much for your time and very helpful strategy advice”

ORCD Real Life Case Study 4

Problem: promotion/recognition of status Intervention: suggested a negotiation strategy with “PI/director” Result:

“He agreed that I put together a program and there should be a better title (such as director of XXXX) for me in his center. Thanks again for the time you spent with me and for your advice.”

ORCD Real Life Case Study 5

Problem: paper rejected (but author thought he could answer the criticisms) Intervention: encouraged writing to editor with rebuttal and helped draft letter Result:

“From rejected, to reconsidered, to accepted. I have never believed there is life after death... until now.”

ORCD Real Life Case Study 6

Problem: individual faced imminent and sudden job loss due to funding crisis Intervention: talked directly to Unit Chief Result: person still had to leave – we cannot work miracles – but received advice on job search
