1. HELPING CHEMISTS FIND JOBS IN A TOUGH MARKET. 2. TOWARDS A QUANTITATIVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE QUALITY OF THE CHEMISTRY JOB MARKET.
What's the job market like for chemists? Dude -- it's always bad.*
How bad is it? How the heck should I know? Quantifying the chemistry job market is what this blog is about. That, and helping chemists find jobs.

CJ,
ReplyDeleteA bit of good news on a lazy day. I am finishing my first month at a small inorganic/ organometallic company in the Midwest. I first found the notice posted on chemjobber. Just a little reminder that you are doing some good for the chemical community. Thanks!
I am so happy to hear that, Anon. Much appreciated.
