[quote=Anonymous]I have a PhD in an adjacent field and have worked in academia, federal govt, private sector, and at a nonprofit research organization. The latter has been the sweet spot for me personally but I had great experiences in govt and private sector as well. The conversation around non-academic careers is much more open and robust than it used to be - get yourself on Twitter and do a search and you'll find a LOT of people talking about their experiences and giving very relevant advice. It's not easy or obvious and you have to be cognizant of the need to shift your mindset - your dissertation topic is very likely not relevant to the career you're seeking, but your skills are. Good luck![/quote]
