Obtaining a position as an independent investigator is a daunting prospect, and often requires skill sets that are not emphasized during graduate or postdoctoral training. Here, we present insight from a seminar series designed to guide young researchers looking to "make the jump", covering the fundamental steps of the job search (preparation of an application package, Skype/remote interview, campus visit, and negotiations). We summarize the many useful insights distilled throughout these roundtable sessions with the goal of providing information and guidance to a broader community of researchers on the best way to prepare for and tackle the faculty job market.
获得独立研究员的职位是一项艰巨的任务，通常需要在研究生或博士后培训期间未强调的技能。在这里，我们从一个旨在指导寻求“跨越”的年轻研究人员的研讨会系列中获得了一些见解，涵盖了求职的基本步骤（申请包的准备、Skype/远程面试、校园访问和谈判）。我们总结了这些圆桌会议中提炼出的许多有用的见解，目的是为更广泛的研究人员群体提供有关如何最好地准备和应对教职员工市场的信息和指导。
