ResumoThought LeaderOften, scientists don't even realise they have transferable skills that can be widely applied in industry!Scismic was founded to help facilitate scientists' transition from academia to industry.Its two platforms -Scismic Job Seeker and Scismic Lab Seeker -ensure job-seeking scientists find fulfilling work that truly matches their unique skillsets.Scismic has overcome several weaknesses inherent in traditional hiring models, and provides a job-matching platform that saves time, alleviates confusion, and reduces the biases that tend to stifle diversity.Research Outreach caught up with co-founders Elizabeth Wu and Danika Khong, PhD, to discuss these problems, and to hear how Scismic is working to overcome them.
