How is becoming a Professor, a highly beneficial career opportunity?

The highest teaching post an academic can hold in a college or university is that of a professor. Professors are experts in their disciplines who conduct research, teach classes and mentor students. You can think about getting into professor jobs if you wish to pursue a career in academia. In this post, we'll look at five occupations that graduate students and professors can apply for as well as reasons why becoming a professor is highly beneficial for your career.

The benefits of becoming a professor

Here are factors that may make this job path appealing to you-

Job stability

Higher education institutions regularly require talented and motivated professors to fill open jobs in departments that are growing or to replace departing faculty members. An institution that values your expertise and teaching skills can award you tenure. You can work permanently and conduct the research you're enthusiastic about in tenured college/university professor jobs.

Independence or Flexibility at Work

There's a chance that professors fail to fit in the typical 9 to 5 hours at the office. The schedules they make for themselves may easily allow for the focus of their days at work, which may comprise teaching, office hours, research, or visiting meetings. They may also have the choice to work from home. During the summer, some professors also get extra time off.

 Contentment at work

People involved in professors or assistant professor jobs frequently write their own lectures, allowing them to include their specialized interests or recent research in their area of expertise. If, for example, you were inspired to become a professor of Shakespearean literature and you work in the English department of a university, you might routinely get the chance to teach and do analyses of Shakespeare's plays and sonnets.

Sharing information

Professors typically choose their career path as they love teaching and want to share their expertise with others. Through their instruction, they have the power to influence the lives of young people. Mentoring students to help them achieve in their academics and jobs is beneficial for many people doing college professor jobs. They may positively impact the community or the surroundings through their study.

Reputation among peers

Professors devote years to obtaining their doctorate or master's degrees and continuing their education. Because they are experts in their field, they might get the chance to give presentations at conferences or advise various initiatives that take place outside of academia. They may gain even greater notoriety if they publish their research in scientific, peer-reviewed publications.

Ongoing education

To stay current in their fields, academics are required by several universities to continue learning throughout their careers. When teams of professors from other departments get together regularly to exchange teaching advice, some universities might offer training possibilities. Other institutions encourage professors to enrol in seminars, workshops, conferences, and courses to earn continuing education credits.

Vacations

Professors can take a sabbatical, also referred to as compensated time off for travel or research. They typically get one year of break for every year that they work, though the duration varies by university. People involved in Professor or associate professor jobs can utilise this time off from the classroom to travel, publish a book, conduct research, or visit colleges abroad.

Autonomy

In establishing and preparing their own courses, lectures, and assignments within the department's curriculum, professors frequently enjoy a certain amount of independence. Compared to experts working in corporate jobs, professors often have less oversight. They could be accountable to the head of the department, but their degree of supervision cannot be the same.

Travelling 

professors can look for employment in virtually any city or nation that has a college or university. They now have the chance to experience other cultures and live in various areas. Additionally, professors may get invited to attend conferences and travel to other universities to teach or do research.

Working together

Professors collaborate with a range of people in their academic specialisation and beyond. They might collaborate on research projects with groups of students or teams of academic experts. University staff members are routinely encouraged to participate in multidisciplinary initiatives.

Future of the career

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labour Statistics, employment of academics is expected to rise by between 2020 and 2030.This rise in the employment rate is higher than the national average in relation to several other jobs. The BLS estimates that professors in fields including engineering, biology, health, and psychology may experience the largest growth.

Compensation and perks

According to BLS data, professors have the potential to make high wages, with a typical annual wage of $80,560. This value varies widely according to the college or university, the length of prior experience, and the area of competence. Additionally, a lot of colleges provide academics benefit packages that cover things like life and health insurance, retirement plans, paid time off, loan forgiveness, and tuition reimbursement.

I'm rewatching leverage out of nostalgia and some other emotion I haven't figured out yet, and I do think there's a story in "Maggie Ford Collins deals with having the most unhinged ex in her suburban book group, learns to hotwire a car, and gets her groove back, not in that particular order."

here's a playlist of (mostly) historically accurate love songs that twiyor has most definitely danced to on vinyl: youtube, spotify, apple music

some fast, some slow, some made for dancing, others probably not (but i still like them so i included them anyway), i'll add songs as i think of them

do you think he was a TA before he was a professor?

There should be a website like Rate My Professor but for companies with shitty hiring practices. "Don't apply here, they don't send rejection letters," or "hiring manager scheduled me for an interview then told me to my face that the position was already filled, they just have a quota."

"They post the job on indeed, but automatically throw out every single indeed application, only considering applications through the company website."

"Listing said $17 - $19 per hour, actual offer was minimum wage."

"Application included a personality test with 50 strongly agree/strongly disagree statements like 'I would die for the company.'"

"'Full time position,' only 20 - 25 hours."

So... LinkedIn au part two, anyone?

this morning @adimouze got an actual linkedin notification while reading part one and a sign is a sign, so here goes part two of the linkedin au (btw if you think there's suspiciously not enough linkedin in here it's because i genuinely hate that capitalist hellhole with all my heart <3)

“Don’t worry, mate. People on LindkedIn are a bunch of cunts, anyway”

Max would have gasped, if he’d had less dignity, as he watched the man - Daniel, Daniel, Danyul in the flesh, the little icon from his LinkedIn feed, now sitting in the shitty bar, in front of him - swirl his $12 glass of rosé and sip it, scrunching up his nose the same way Sassy did when Max didn’t get her those little overpriced packets of turkey flavored wet food.

“Uh- I would say of course not everyone on LinkedIn is a cunt, maybe” Max said, completely and utterly dumbfounded, half because he was more than a little buzzed and half because he’d spent so much time thinking about finding Daniel that he hadn’t actually thought out what he’d do then (didn’t think he’d get this far, really). He could almost picture Lando laughing maniacally at the blush that was spreading all the way from his chest (thankfully hidden by his plain, black tee) to the very top of his ears, and he thanked whatever God was out there (Sir Isaac Newton, can you hear me?) that the younger engineer was too busy trying to pick up some Spanish car designer on the other side of the convention.

Max could blame the blush on the g&t’s, and not on the fact that his little virtual networking crush (what had his life come to) had the most dazzling smile he’d ever seen, staring him straight in the eyes.

“I would say that they are, then, if you don’t have the balls to” Daniel, who still hadn’t introduced himself, responded with a cheeky smirk, “They’re all stuck up pricks. They act like they only care about furthering physics and science and the greater good when all they want is their name on a plaque somewhere and a couple of sports cars so they can wank off to the airflow of the diffusers or some shit”

Max thought that was such a ridiculous notion, that respected aerodynamics engineers would spend their entire careers longing for a luxury car (and- okay, yeah, his desktop was an Aston Martin Valkyrie, but that was different, he knew that was just as out of his league as the guy standing in front of him right now). Furthermore, a pesky voice in the back of his head that sounded an awful lot like Jos was telling him that this guy was an ingrate, a disrespectful, unprofessional man who’d get nowhere, but Max bit his tongue and then washed it away with a gulp of his g&t, letting Daniel speak because he clearly wanted to rant.

“I’m serious, mate, all these people ever come to do to conventions like this is flaunt their achievements. Like-” he adjusted his stance, wiggling his body so he could move the shitty bar stool without actually getting up, suddenly getting very, very much in Max’s personal space, his thick, meaty thigh (who wore shorts to a networking event? This guy was crazy) almost brushing against Max’s knee as he leaned over to whisper and point, “See him? That’s Zak Brown, he owns McLaren Aerodynamics.”

Shit, wasn’t that Lando’s boss? Now Max felt ever so slightly guilty for nodding along to the Brit’s rants about his work, without actually ever hearing anything. “If you talk to him, he’ll invite you to a game of golf, and if you say yes he’ll take you there in a Lambo and offer you a round of Chandon or some shit, his treat. You know how he gets all that money? Because people love to spend it, shit, I love it too, but don’t you ever stop to think about where it comes from?”

Daniel leaned in even closer, his hot breath against the scorching heat of Max’s helplessly flushed ear, his words ever so slightly slurred like maybe it hadn’t been his first rosé. Maybe he’d started off with something stronger in his car (was pregaming work conventions... a thing?), and now he was trying to look semi-dignified and failing.

“He gets it from defense contracts”

Max blinked owlishly at that, like maybe he’d heard it wrong. Surely he didn't mean to say what it sounded like he was, at the very least, implying. “Uh- what? I thought they made, like…” he tried to concentrate, genuinely wrack his brain to remember what Lando had mentioned “Uh, trains? High speed trains, don’t they- isn’t that what they make?”

Daniel laughed at that, a honky, unabashed laugh, throwing his head back and showing off those pearly whites as his curl bounced. “That’s what they’ll tell you on their website, mate. That they care about the environment and are working with the UK government to make-” hic, “Make uhh, a- a greener future or some shit. And- yes, they’ve got contracts with the UK government, plenty of ‘em, but most of them are defense”

At Max’s shocked expression, at his gaping mouth, Daniel sighed and rubbed his face with his hands, and yeah, he was definitely more drunk than Max, somehow.

“Missiles! They make missiles, Maxy”

Max didn’t think Lando was capable of even designing a missile for a fruit fly, much less for… actual humans. Fish, maybe. But humans seemed odd. “How are you so sure?”

Daniel seemed to deflate at that, like everyone had said the same thing. He pulled back, elbows on the bar and head hung low between his sagged shoulders, and Max found himself missing the warmth of his tattooed thigh against his knee, even though he still felt feverish from the alcohol and the flusteredness of it all.

The Aussie hiccuped again, blinking a couple of times. “Worked there” he said, and he sounded almost beaten down as he added, “Then I quit. Eeeh, not true, actually, got fired. Publicly it was a mutual agreement. Doesn’t matter” he stopped to down what was left of his rosé, grimacing although it must have been quite a pleasant, sweet taste, not at all a man’s drink, like Jos would say. “Now I make about a tenth of what I did and I teach the next generation of missile designers how to maximize… missileness”

Max hummed, quietly. He didn’t quite know what to say at that - he made a mental note to ask Lando about some things on the drive back, sure, but other than that. He got a sense that maybe the funny LinkedIn man had turned into a sad, hot, somehow still funny LinkedIn man.

Maybe he just needed a friend. Someone to listen.

Max grimaced at that last thought, scrunching up his face and staring down at his g&t with hatred, like his favorite drink had been tainted with feelings, and they were rapidly making his way into his bloodstream.

What was he even thinking?! Sure, the guy was funny and clearly had had some success at some point of his career and he was kind of possibly the hottest man Max had ever seen but he was also clearly a loser. Besides, they were strangers! They hadn’t even introduced themselves to each other! Daniel didn’t even know Max’s-

Wait.

“How do you know my name?”

Daniel’s eyes, previously fixed on a poster of a cowboy that advertised some sort of insurance Max couldn't care less about, widened almost comically. He stared at him for a beat too long before chuckling awkwardly. “Uuuuh, what?”

“You called me Maxy. You said, they make missiles, Maxy” Max said, finally feeling the expected effect of his g&t’s, that was, some fucking courage. “How do you know my name is Max”

A second passed.

Then another.

Then a third, and by the fourth Max had just now noticed the convention was blasting some shitty, outdated jazz music, which worked more as a sleep inducer than a mood setter.

By the fifth, Max was thinking maybe Daniel wouldn’t answer, so he doubled down and looked eyes with him, but Daniel immediately looked away, flustered and biting down on his plush, pink lip, frowning as if deep in thought. “Uuuuh” he stammered, rubbing his face with the heels of his palms again, chuckling awkwardly, “Would it be too lame to say I follow you on LinkedIn?”
