Season 2 Episode 13: Interview with Chris Humphrey

Recovering Academic

In this episode we’re joined by Dr. Chris Humphrey of Jobs on Toast.

You Are More Than an Academic

Chris received his PhD in medieval studies from the University of York. His first post-PhD job was working as content analyst for an e-learning startup. Currently, he’s a project manager at a bank in England. Chris shares with us his transition story and why he started Jobs on Toast.

Chris’s transition story exemplifies the transferable skills that all PhDs have in their toolkit. We just need to reframe them and translate them to the language that employers understand.
