My question was more about the perception in IISc about people who apply from industrial research labs (with a decent publication record). I ask because the general feeling in some schools about industrial research is not always positive.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />ArunArun K.

So I'm not able to respond to your question.<br /><br />@Arun: IISc started a Centenary Post-Doctoral Fellowship sometime ago. You are probably referring to this position.<br /><br />IISc is probably agnostic about type of post-doc one does. As a practical matter, though, it would certainly be in the candidates' interest to go for those post-docs (academia, govt. labs, etc) that lead to publications and strengthen their CV.Abihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06790560045313883673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-47317930309785815702009-10-06T20:59:11.302+05:302009-10-06T20:59:11.302+05:30I am not sure if MHRD introduced OCAP newly or jus...I am not sure if MHRD introduced OCAP newly or just formalised an existing practice. I know that at least from 2008 (probably even before), there was some mechanism at IISc to hire fresh PhDs without any post-doc experience on a temporary basis. I don't know what salary/designation was offered at the time. It was neither encouraging news then nor it is today. <br /><br />Just to clarify, what is considered post-doc experience at IISc? Is it any job after completing te PhD (presumably related to the PhD) or just the traditional post-doc in a University?Arun K.

I would have thought they would be loathe to take in anyone without additional experience post-PhD.<br /><br />Also, if they do hire OCAPs, it will be interesting to see how their job-profile evolves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
