Akron, OH: Goodyear wishes to hire an A.A./B.S. lab associate for a one-year contract position in polymer testing. If you can get some good experience, I think this would be a nice position for a young someone.
Bartlesville, OK: Chevron seeks a Ph.D. research chemist (organic or polymer). 'PPS polymerization' expertise desired.
Santa Barbara, CA: DuPont wishes to hire a B.S./M.S./Ph.D. research investigator for a printed OLED development team. Is Santa Barbara as nice as it seems? I visited there once, and it seemed like the nicest place in California I've ever been.

Santa Barbara is, in fact, as nice as it seems. Nice weather, laid back atmosphere, lots of beautiful women. It straddles the fence between sleepy beach town and big city.
ReplyDeleteThose benefits don't come without a price. Your rent/mortgage will be enormous, and there's very few science jobs outside of the university. The airport is also very small, and the nearest major one is LAX (~2 hrs away).
After a very long search, I finally landed a job in the Boston area a little while back. I wish those still searching the best. Keep pounding away at it and something will break for you. That's what I did.
