How I have applied Post doc position in biogeochemistry

Post doc position in biogeochemistry is very rare to find a professor because this discipline is very much difficult to conduct a research. Organic biogeochemistry research need cutting edge technology. Gas chromatography and mass spectrometry mass spectrometry is very much important even critical. Recently I have applied a post doc position in the university of Leeds but not directly to the official process of submitting application instead I send application to the supervisor directly.

Why I did not apply through the official process for biogeochemistry instead sent application to the professor?

The answer is very simple. If I apply through the official process then hundreds of application I have to face but I wish to go easiest way to reach to the professor. Hence I sent my details CV and cover latter to the professor directly through the email.

Besides that application through the official process is also tadeous and time consuming.

For directly to the professor you don’t need to follow any rules and regulations. Once you get the consent of professor you can go through the official process.
