Thanks for sharing the talk and I have downloaded the book. May I know how to put the transferable skills into the CV? I seemed cannot image a proper way to do so. Many thanks! Letian
Hi Letian, here is a blog post that might help: cheekyscientist.com/transferable-skills-recruiters-are-looking-for/ Here you can access the top 20 transferable skills employers want PhDs to have: cheekyscientist.com/20-transferable-skills-ebook/
Hi Shiv. Thanks for reaching out. The short answer is no, they shouldn't. Keep them on a separate list. If you apply for a job and they want to see your publications, you can send it to them at that point.
Thanks CS for instant reply. So which section of the resume template is the appropriate place to highlight the findings and the results from the publication? And finally, is personal website an advantage to the recruiter? If so where to add it in the template?
Hi Shiv. It's our pleasure to help! You can highlight key publications as a quantifiable result in your bullet points in your professional summary. You could say something like "Creative team-player who created a new process/procedure/method that was published across 4+ publications, including in Nature." (This is just a broad example. You will want to tailor this to your specific experience/skills). Something like that is fine to include. However, do not detail your publication history in your industry resume. As for your website, you could include links to publications there (that would be fine). If you have a professional website and/or LinkedIn, this is very valuable for you. You can include this in your personal information at the top of the template (if you are using our resume template). Does this make sense?

Should publication be added in the PhD level resume template?
