title: Survival strategies for choosing the right postdoc position.
abstract: You are completing your PhD (at last!), and might be asking yourself, 'What do I have to accomplish as a postdoc if I want to get a faculty job at one of the top 25% of research universities?' This article is a follow up to last year's essay on picking a graduate studentship, and here I lay out the advice I give to young scientists who have determined that they want to make the next step towards a research faculty post.
