      if you're an academic, the best time to bail out to industry was last year and the second best time is now

      Great question. 1. Get industry internships, consultancies, anything you can using your institutional affiliation as leverage. Start learning norms and building a resume to demonstrate that you'll onboard easily to full time.https://twitter.com/FeelsMcReals/status/1272960004547588099?s=19 …

      do you have any advice from your move from grad school to industry job (at least I think that's what you did), particularly with respect to framing your experience to get first job? (I'm in that process now)

      2. Try to get up to speed on industry tooling. Look at new hire requirements for jobs that might fit your skills. Use these tools in your academic work where you can to build fluency or at least proficiency.

      3. Try to pick courses with content that transfers easily to industry. I did a pure ML sequence outside of the usual econometrics coursework and that was instrumental in swinging my first role.

      4. Remember that your job is escaping rather than graduating per se. Graduate if it will actually help; there are some job classes that want a PhD. But this is not the academic job market and credentials typically don't matter so much once you get established.

      5. Make friends outside of academia and ask them for advice. Many people will be happy to refer you; they're often heavily incentivized, in fact. Ask politely, but especially for work at large firms it is not a major lift.

      footnote industry is not safe per se, but most firms are happy with silence and do not demand active support of (whatever) and my hunch is that management's end goal remains making a profit case study:https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2020/06/13/tech/facebook-employee-fired-inaction-black-lives-matter-tweet/index.html …
