For many devoted females viewers of the hit sci-fi television series “The X-Files,” the show wasn’t just entertaining, it was was life-changing. Women who regularly tuned into “The X-Files” were 50% more likely to have worked in a science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) field, according to a recent survey conducted by the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media. Nearly all the women surveyed who were familiar with the series’ lead character, a female doctor and FBI agent named Dana Scully, said she is a role model for girls and women. And close to two-thirds attributed their belief in the importance of STEM to the fictional character.

The survey’s findings validate fans’ long-held belief in “The Scully Effect,” which suggests that women became interested in science fields because of Scully, played by actress Gillian Anderson throughout the show’s eleven seasons.

I’m not anti-technology, I just think there’s something deeply sick about a society where robots make art and children work in factories.

The golf links lie so near the mill That almost every day The laboring children can look out And see the men at play.

Any "Tell me about a time when..." question can be answered using the same formula called the STAR method:

Situation: briefly (in a sentence or two), set up the conflict. Task: tell what your responsibility was in the overall work environment (i.e. were you a manager?). Action: list out the steps you took to resolve the conflict. Result: give the ultimate outcome.

For instance, "tell me about a time when you had a problem with a coworker."

Situation: At my previous job, I joined an already well-established team in my first year, and started coming into conflict with my manager over task management. Task: As a first-year associate, I previously hadn't had a ton of control over my own deadlines, and I assumed it would be the same on this team. However, this manager put a high priority on autonomy and was a bit more hands-off. Action: I took the initiative to meet up with my manager and discuss what her overarching priorities for the project were, and how my pieces fit into the larger picture. From there, I set up a rough estimate of a timeline for my major tasks, and checked in with her. We were able to tweak the timeline to make sure that one piece of my project would be complete in time for the senior associate to review effectively. I then broke that timeline down even further for my own reference, and sent weekly email updates to my manager to discuss my progress and keep myself on track. Result: Communication vastly improved, and we were able to finish the project with plenty of time to spare. I also developed a timeline template to provide to our intern, which helped her stay on track too.

[ID: Interview Questions (Translated): The interview process can be confusing because interviewers expect you to answer completely different questions than what they've asked. Here are a few translations for ASDers on the job hunt.

What they ask: Tell me about yourself

What they want: Give me ~3 sentences on your relevant experience, and then something complimentary about why you're interviewing there specifically.

What they ask: Why are you interested in this company/position?

What they want: Reiterate something (not a perk) from the about us page or job description and say that it is very important or interesting to you.

What they ask: What are you looking for in a new position?

What they want: Reiterate something that the company brags about on their website (not a perk) e.g. the opportunity to work with x technology or career growth

What they ask: Tell me about a time when you had a conflict with a co-worker

What they want: Tell me about a time when there was a minor, non-offensive disagreement with a co-worker that you resolved in a positive way.

What they ask: Tell me about the latest project you worked on.

What they want: Tell me about a successful project you worked on, that is relevant to the work we do here.

Job searching is frustrating! But with a little bit of practice, you too can mask your way to a position that extends your survival in this capitalist hellscape we call home. end ID]
