BioChem PhDs are Unemployable

A space for scientists, researchers, and lab workers to share experiment fails, lab wins, and PI woes. Do you need advice, a place to vent, or just some lab-life humor? Want to share your big successes, your awesome protocols, and tricks of the trade? Join your fellow labrats.
I have trained 16 PhD students in Biochemistry. They were all employed within months of defending, some before they finished.
A BS in biochem is the same as one in psychology.... close to worthless without the PhD.
HR departments actually love hiring psych degrees if you don't mind the class treason
What do you think has made them successful? What have you taught them?
Not OP, but probably biochemistry
Of course, but as a good mentor he must have taught additional skills.
