Think about what lies at the root of your interest in a science career. Why did you get into science in the first place—you know, back in your early days? Was it the promise of a big-time salary? Probably not. Science careers have never been touted as a sure-fire way to earn big-time compensation, and salary rarely comes up as a top selection factor for students deciding their future careers. Was it the prestige of an academic appointment at a distinguished university? I doubt it. Perhaps you reflected upon your academic adviser’s cool job as a professor. That, however, probably wasn’t at the root of your interest in science; you discovered it later on, as you were being mentored in the lab. I suspect that neither salary nor prestige were likely to have been a driving force behind your initial motivation to be a scientist.
It’s my guess that, as a young person, you imagined yourself using your abilities in math or science to solve a problem—perhaps to cure a disease or advance the state of knowledge in an area that interested you. And it was this interest—this passion—that drove you into science and kept you motivated through the many years it took to advance your education and career to where they are today.
When asked to talk about your science, show the real you.
It’s easy to dismiss the element of passion when you think about all the things that an employer is looking for. After all, read the job ad and you’ll see six to eight “must have” skills and qualities that the employer considers essential, but passion won’t be listed. Even so, it’s the one factor you won’t get very far without.
Passion at the heart of career successOur executive and scientific search practice operates with two parallel business tracks: pharmaceutical sciences and agricultural sciences. You can imagine just by the nature of the work in these two fields how difficult it is to cross boundaries: People with advanced pharma careers don’t easily move over to the agriculture business, and vice versa. But despite these two tracks being completely separate, two recent rounds of interviews for clients on either side of this divide helped me recognize what a successful Indian plant breeder has in common with an equally first-rate American cell biologist: The passion they have for what they do still drives their career success a decade after leaving the academic lab.
When I asked Rajesh, the plant breeder, the “what got you into this field” question, he told me about the role agriculture played in his childhood. “I was raised on a very small farm, by parents who dedicated their lives to each harvest, one that barely put us at a level above subsistence,” he said. “We were growing pearl millet. It was tough, especially as the ground was difficult, the weather unpredictable, and the crops suffered disease regularly due to drought or insects. The big seed companies had no interest in these poor man’s crops, but I knew that science could have an impact on our lives by solving these plant problems through breeding and biotechnology.” I could tell that every one of Rajesh’s career decisions had been a result of his passion to make lives better at home. And as Chris, our human resources contact at this agricultural research client, says, “The better candidates all have this passion; it is what lies at the heart of 99% of our successful hires.”
After my meeting with Rajesh, who impressed me and is now in line to do the same with my client, I met Susan, a cell biologist whose career in science has been driven just as surely by passion as Rajesh’s was. “I was always fascinated by science,” she said when I asked her why she went into biology. “I was an avid science fiction reader, and did rather well in early science and math classes. But it wasn’t until my favorite aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer that I got the bug to make science my life and passion. I knew that someday someone would find a cure, and I wanted so much to be that person. My career goals originate entirely from the way I felt about my aunt.”
Of course, not everyone’s interest in science is due to an intensely personal reason, but a successful response to an interviewer’s question about motivation simply needs to recall the emotions, and the reasoning, behind your decision. What I particularly respect when I ask this question is candor and the interviewee’s ability to express emotion. No made-up interviewing BS, please!
My uncle wanted to become a scientist too.Its very difficult and takes so many years to get fulfilled but the end result is your dream fulfilled.
To become a scientist,the first and foremost rule is to develop your love and passion for science.You should be good in mathematics,physics,chemistry, biology,astronomy,etc.
You should have a very good understanding of the basics of these subjects.You should pass the 12th with good marks in the subjects that you have chosen.Yes!!! getting good marks in 12th is most important.
Now starts your journey:-
Being a scientist is not easy.You have to work tirelessly for several hours,so learn to have patience.
Be curious and diligent in your quest.
Be ready to learn new things and try to come up with smart out of the box solutions for complex problems.
Start reading scientific journals.
Keep your knowledge on changes around the scientific world up-to-date.
Learn languages such as French,German,etc. because most of the older scientific papers are in these languages.
When you grow up,do internship under a good scientist or your science professor to get some lab experience.
Do a bachelors course in the particular scientific field that you want and after that apply for entrances like AIEEE and IIT.
Then you have to apply for a Master's degree in that field.
After you can apply for doctoral and post-doctoral degrees and take up various tests like IIST.
Hope it helps you!!! If you need to ask queries you can surely ask
