    Subject: Re: Answer for Career Opportunities

    From: Kazi Hussain [mailto:KHussain@sbgom.com]

    My personal and professional opinion only:
    I was in industry, and then in academia, and later switched back to
    industry. I earned my PhD while pursuing a career in industry.(it was hard
    and long)

    The choices will depend upon what your student wants to do. However, his age
    may be a barrier (though there are laws in USA about age discrimination) but
    there is always a silent/hidden agenda of the hiring managers. After the age
    of 40, it becomes tough.


    Yet, if he has marketable skills, and good expreirnece he has opportunties
    such as:
    - government
    - consulting companies
    - industry
    - private sector research firms
    - start his own consulting or busines
    - franchising
    - overseas/foriegn employment
    - interim manager, contract employee for special assignments.
    - teach at community colleges or e-university, virtual university
    - corporate universties
    - business conference centers / resorts.

    I hope this may be of some help to you and him. Either search the
    opportunites thru the net with several job boards, corporate web sites or
    contact a good specialty head-hunter (management recruiter).

    Best Regards
    Dr Kazi F. Hussain

    Subject: Career Opportunities


    Dear All, As a dyed in the wool academic, I basically prepare students to
    be researchers. However, one of my Ph.D. students (in his mid-40s) wants
    to know about other career opportunities/paths. Many of you have chosen
    paths other than being at a research university. I would appreciate
    feedback, that I can pass on, regarding non-university careers, and how one
    pursues them.

    Thanks, Kim Boal
