[交流] 海投博后收到的 A FORM LETTER,看来海投也需要时间好好改cover letter 已有8人参与

海投博后收到的 A FORM LETTER,看来海投也需要时间好好改cover letter。估计很多人有这种经历吧?希望对大家有帮助!
---------------
I receive several e-mails like yours every week.  It appears that you know nothing about me or my research, since your letter does not indicate any specific interest in any of the research projects in my laboratory.  I do not read CVs attached to e-mails like this.


A postdoctoral position is not a job.  It should be the final bit of training before you launch an independent scientific career.  You should choose such a position with great care.  This requires that you do a fair amount of research on the leading laboratories in your field of interest.  You should then write a very carefully crafted letter that shows a genuine interest in the laboratory you are contacting.  Do not use the same letter for multiple laboratories.


I always want to know two things from prospective postdocs:  (1) What specific skills do you hope to acquire while in my laboratory?  (2) What specific skills will you bring that my research group does not already have?


PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS RESPONSE, LIKE YOUR E-MAIL TO ME, IS A FORM LETTER.  I HAVE NOT READ YOUR CV.  I SEND THIS TO YOU (AND MANY OTHERS) IN THE HOPE THAT IT IS USEFUL TO YOU.

海投就是撞大运,花太多时间准备成效其实不大,特别是当今财政状况不佳情况之下。

同意哈。现在关键是你不确定外导有没有位置。只是他是大牛你对他感兴趣,然后花上好多天仔细认真准备CV和cover letter,按照这几点要求写的天花乱坠,结果人家也没有钱,岂不是太浪费时间哈。当然针对广告职位,确定老板有钱要招人了,这么准备花点事情还是值得的。海投太仔细准备有点过于浪费时间哈。
