Ronald Sims: Be less focused on jobs that are technician-oriented and involve operating automated diagnostic testing machines as these are generally much lower paying. Industry-based positions generally pay higher starting salaries than positions with government and consulting organizations. Demonstrate pro-active behavior, interest, and initiative in taking on new and difficult tasks. Demonstrate that you can represent the company or organization to outside audiences or at least show an interest in doing that (customer relations).
Adam Lowenstein: Identify areas of specialization that you like and that align with the goals of your company.
