In new types of technology-intensive businesses, we need to save time by hiring professionals who already have experience. However, this specialist knowledge is not yet being taught, so we hire people who started out doing a thesis, with a career in research. DocPro is a resource that helps us build teams able to work in new fields.
There is no “standard” doctoral profile. Some researchers will be attached to the academic way of doing things, others will feel more comfortable in the context of private enterprise.vin
The profiles that recruiters post on DocPro enable PhD-holders to ask themselves the question: “Is this a company to which I should send an unsolicited application? Do I match this profile?”
We have to get away from the idea that a PhD-holder is necessarily confined to a job in research and development. In the United States, PhDs quickly hold positions in management.
