Oct 26, 2021 at 9:19 comment added EarlGrey @BernhardDöbler very good (and obvious, I missed it!) point ... put it even clearer and in indirect form: "If ou are the lab head, would you be happy your employee is doing another job while you expect him/her to work on the centrifuges (i.e. work and control, even if everything is running fine)?"

Oct 23, 2021 at 23:19 comment added Bernhard Döbler Would you stay in the lab observing the centrifuges, while you work a remote job for some company?

Oct 22, 2021 at 10:51 comment added EarlGrey If you plan to work in a company in the same field as your PhD, without having a research agreement or a research project, it can actually be a big source of issues/problems/breach of confidentiality and so on. Don't do that. You will have your PhD epxerience speaking for yourself in 3 years, you need no connections right now. If you are ready to work some extra hours, try to be tutoring highshool students, or university students. You don't speak the local language? don't worry ... rich people sends their offsprings to international school where the subjects are all in english!
Oct 22, 2021 at 9:27 comment added Isabelle Roth @EarlGrey yes unfortunately some personal financial matters, so I could really do with some extra income. I asked if there were any graduate teaching positions but unfortunately not a thing at my uni. Also, the company is one of the biggest names in my field, so I thought it might be good to build connections there even if I don't actually work for long. During my undergrad I thought I'd change fields and my summers were spent on internships in another sector, so I don't actually have any work experience in my current field yet.
Oct 22, 2021 at 9:18 comment added Isabelle Roth @Roland Yup no problem from the funding side of things
Oct 22, 2021 at 9:17 comment added Isabelle Roth @Anton Menshov Thanks for those! I had already seen them but was hoping that the job being remote would maybe change my chances of managing both, which as I can see now is not the case...
Oct 22, 2021 at 7:26 comment added EarlGrey Getting a job position for 6 months is not beneficial for your CV, you will not learn much, you will also not be so productive. The question is then: why? financial matters?

Oct 22, 2021 at 6:50 comment added user9482 You don't specify the European country. Have you checked that your PhD funding even allows you to do this?
