Yale University Work Values

Daily Duties at Yale University:

During graduate school, I performed bioinformatic and molecular biology experiments related to my thesis research project and analyzed data generated in these experiments. I was responsible for staying current on the literature in my field, and I regularly presented my data or research plans to other members of my thesis lab and department. I developed research strategies and wrote protocols, scientific manuscripts, grant applications, and generate scientific posters. I mentored three junior graduate students in biology research techniques and data analysis.

What they like about Yale University:

The social vibrance of a hiring firm is very important to you. Your ability to make and maintain friendships there is a critical part of your decision. You would likely be dissatisfied with a workplace that is quiet, cold, or otherwise not particularly social. When you investigate a new hiring company, ask recruiters, managers, and potential co-workers about the social life and opportunities there. This is especially important when you are relocating; moving dramatically alters your social sphere both inside and outside the workplace.
