Thank you so much! I think after this zap I shuld be in the top 10 now!🤗 The leaderboard is quite addictive, isn't it?
It is addictive. I am doing a lot of paperwork these days, so it's easier to spend a few minutes here and then to post on SN. My activity levels here might decrease again after I finish the paperwork and finish my job application.

Great! So, first time job?
I'm asking because I was also planning to get a job in private sector but I just didn't find it worth as I was told to be paid less than $100. So, I decided to do some agricultural work and SN of course! With both of them I think I'll be better off than doing a job! At least I can be the master of myself.

Oh no, I've been working for a long time. Trying to get a permanent job in academia. It's highly competitive due to the broken nature of the pyramid shape that forms below a professor, having several postdocs, and even more PhDs under their guidance.
Good luck finding the thing that drives you.

Incidentally, I am currently adding an entry to my CV about a collaboration with the Indian Institute of Science.

Indian Institute of Science is the best one here. Did you visit India to collaborate or it was virtual thing?
reply
I met some of the collaborators when they visited Korea. Hope to visit them in India one day.

Ahh I see! So you are well set to be a professor. It's a highly paid job. It must be good.
I was trying to get a job in primary school but hee in India, the salary in the private sector is very low and I thought it's better to do nothing than to do it for 2 to 3 dollars everyday.
