Astronomy, circa 2023 🫠

In your application letter for #PhD / postdoc, NEVER ever say: "Hi prof" "Hello" "Dear Professor" "Greetings of the day" If you do, your email will be immediately deleted by 99% of professors. ▫️ Only start your applications with “Dear Prof. [second_name],” And don’t describe how good you are. Explain how valuable you are. ▫️ [Professionalism] + [Value] can go a long way. Good luck. #phdchat #AcademicChatter
