Does your company hire recently graduated PhDs for research, or do you prefer people coming off a post-doc? I'm hoping to jump right into industry when I finish my doctorate in a year or two and avoid remaining in academia.

Thanks for the reply! Any recommendations?

My apartment is relatively small (850 sq.ft.) and all laminate floors with one area rug. For cleaning, I just use a broom for debris/pet hair and mop when needed. I always thought vacuums were just for carpets, but would there be any reason or advantage for me to use one instead?

Yeah, you should have put it in a basket instead.

Rather than directly propositioned, how often do you get hit on/asked out? I imagine the environment and interaction with your clients is much more close and relaxed than most other jobs, so maybe men are more confident in asking for a number.
