My opportunities as physics postgraduate

AI Thread Summary
Postgraduate physics graduates from India living in Australia face challenges in finding job opportunities, particularly in the current job market. Citizenship status may impact eligibility for certain positions, as many employers prefer or require Australian citizenship. Attending career events at universities can provide valuable networking opportunities and job leads. The job market for physics roles, especially for postgraduates and post-docs, is described as competitive and varies significantly by specialization within the field.

Hi,

Are you a citizen at the moment? I know a lot of places require you to be an Australian citizen.

Besides looking online for jobs the best thing you can do is attend your universities careers days / nights. If you obtained your degree in India you can find information about these events on any of the university websites.

From what I've heard it's pretty rough finding jobs in physics at the moment as a postgraduate student, even as a post-doc, but that depends a lot more on what field.

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...

Thread 'My Grade 11 Math mark is eating me alive. What do I do?'

I'm going to make this one quick since I have little time. Background: Throughout my life I have always done good in Math. I almost always received 90%+, and received easily upwards of 95% when I took normal-level HS Math courses. When I took Grade 9 "De-Streamed" Math (All students must take "De-Streamed" in Canada), I initially had 98% until I got very sick and my mark had dropped to 95%. The Physics teachers and Math teachers talked about me as if I were some sort of genius. Then, an...
