If STEM was just one of your interests in school, how did you balance your love for other "less stable" careers such as arts. How important is it to prioritise what will benefit your future than what will make you truly passionate?

I'm currently a year 12 student and will pursue a STEM career in neuroscience if my ATAR is sufficient. However, I also have many other interests involving the arts that I want to incorporate in my career but not sure how to :,)

How and when were you certain that you had to switch majors?

Did you feel like you were giving up? Or did you feel like you were finally going somewhere?

Are doctorate degrees that aren't PhDs taken seriously at all in academia?

Is there any point in getting small qualifications that are unrelated to the job you're applying for and what does that tell the employer?

For example, is there any use to a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification specifically on a resume if you aren't applying for a job teaching English? Does it look any better on paper?

For example, should you disclose medical conditions?
Degrees that are unrelated to the job?
Experience that may make you seem overqualified?

When looking for a job, do your degrees become less relevant the more jobs you do?

Do interviewers still look at degrees after your first few jobs or is work experience valued a lot more?

I've always been so confused and honestly frustrated that women don't get as much recognition in STEM-related careers, and although opportunities are arising there are still underlying sexism and misogyny in the workplace. That sometimes discourage me from pursuing a career in STEM because I...
