2)      How did your CERN experience contribute to your subsequent career, if at all?

"Working at CERN was a valuable experience. I learnt self discipline and self reliance while working at CERN, but also the value of collaboration, because my work at CERN is part of a much bigger picture that physicists are trying to reveal about the inner workings of nature. "

3)      Where do you see the value in being an active member of the CERN Alumni Network?

"It is very helpful to understand how one's experience at CERN can be useful, in academia, in the industry or in a startup."
