Victoria Carr of ResearcHers Code has teamed up with Vicki Tipton from KCL Careers to bring you the first part of two episodes interviewing women who moved from the academia into the tech industry. We are joined by Chloe Tartan, Ella Fitzsimmons and Charlotte Fereday, who each have PhDs in different backgrounds (photonics, religious studies and language and linguistics respectively!) and are now working in tech roles. We discuss their journey from academia to their current job, what skills they've learnt during their PhDs that have helped them break into the tech space and what new skills they learnt on the job. Join us in the new year for the 2nd part of this conversation which focuses on diversity, barriers faced and top tips for researchers wanting to go into the tech sector.
