Wouldn't you say you have already joined IT? It's difficult for me to believe that you have managed to get all the way through a PhD without cultivating close relationships with at least one private sector company. Unless you had planned to stay in research throughout your life, wouldn't that have been an obvious step along the way? >Are there any India based opportunities- as I checked Python job board >it is very less. There are very, very few full-time Python jobs anywhere in the world, although many people use Python as one tool in their toolbox. >If I get anything after completing my Post Doc with present base of >knowledge what profiles I may expect? >If I have to learn anything what they may be and how much time >generally a person needs to learn them and what may be the profile >expectancy? I am amazed that a PhD does not already have some clues about the answers to these questions. Your best plan is to start exploiting your network of contacts. If you don't already have a network of commercial contacts, then you have a long, hard road ahead of you. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
