Science Careers has for the past couple of years offered the myIDP Individual Development Plan program (http://myidp.sciencecareers.org/) to help scientists assess their skills and identify how they will need to improve to make themselves competitive/suitable for particular science career paths.  I'm simply interested in two aspects of this program:  (1) whether and how many investigators in the Biological Sciences have completed the various assessments within the myIDP website (at least, as gauged from the sample of biologists in the ResearchGate community), and (2) whether they have found this to be useful for their careers.  In particular, did completing the myIDP program help you identify and/or hone your skills?  In your experience, has completing the myIDP program helped you obtain your current position or prepare for interviews?  Look forward to hearing back from people about this.
