    Email Interview
AI Thread Summary
An individual is seeking an interview with a physicist to gather insights for a school project. The focus is on understanding the educational requirements, characteristics of professionals in the field, types of work performed, and job availability in physics. The interview would consist of a few email questions, taking approximately 15 minutes to complete, and is intended for personal use rather than publication. A current physics student is also involved in the inquiry. Additionally, a participant offers to connect the requester with a physicist, providing contact information for further communication.

I'm in need of an interview with anyone filling the job description of a physicist. Just a few basic questions about the education required for the job, characteristics of people in the job, the type of work done, availability of jobs in the field, etc. Anyone with a degree in physics and an understanding of the current trends/employability in the field would do...
The interview would be a few questions over email that could be answered in maybe 15 minutes. It wouldn't be published or read in front of a billion people or anything of that sort; it's just for a small school project. Gather a bit of first-hand information, and get a nice-looking primary source in the works-cited list, that sort of thing.
If anyone here could help me out I'd be very grateful. If you think you think you can spare a few minutes for me please reply, or just drop me an email at obi dot wonton at gmail dot com.

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
