Hi All,
I post viva and starting my corrections with my thesis. I am also starting to look for jobs and post docs positions in particular. I am wondering what is the best way to get a post doc in Canada/ USA/ Australia?
The topic of my thesis is finance mixed with psychology, where I looked at stock market investors and used psychological models to predict their susceptibility to a decision making bias. I would like to something along the same lines.
So my question is, what is the best way to get a post doc? Is it best to wait for an advertisement to placed and apply? Or is it best to approach academics at a conference and network your way into a post doc? Or is it best go to a funding body, get some money for a research idea and seek out a post doc supervisor then?
Any ideas welcome!
Cheers,
Potatoes
