Here I am. High-school me would be so proud.

Biotechnology is super cozy, would highly recommend for career. One tip though, people are hired based on their personality first. No one wants to work with spergs regardless of their scientific aptitude.

and just like that you have revealed yourself another worthless retard in the gigantic pile of worthless retards in academia and research.
Your research will never amount to anything of note.
Try changing yourself before it's too late

There is no "changing yourself". Stop this delusional cope, it's hurting people.

I "made it" before I ever even heard of this shithole website. Imagine caring about being "hired" to begin with because you arent smart enough to make money on your own without wage slaving for someone else and then thinking you are in a position to give other people life advice.

Kind of checks out that retarded larpers are here, but only very few actual scientists.

Unless you are literally irreplaceable, a true intellectual giant, then your personality always matters more than your acumen.

Especially in academia. Everyone is intellectually superior, well published, hyper-achieving so the competition between you and Other Guy is going to come down to other factors such as "are you likeable?", "do you work well with others?", "do you need handling with kid gloves because you're a whiny manchild?" etc.

How is that different than fake working your favourite genetic combinations, hiring your friends, and calling everyone who is out of your tribe an excuse not to hire them? Likeability is inherently tribal and racial,

Pic related doesn't need your personality horoscopes, and will crush your academy and fake work
