A few of the positions posted on the C&EN Jobs website:
Mountain View, CA: Chinese state-owned enterprise looking for 15 openings that are ~biofuels-related (?)
San Diego Career Fair Watch: 87 positions posted.
Seattle, WA: Once again, Seattle Genetics is searching for a senior process chemist. I really gotta ask myself - are they growing, or do they just have turnover? I suspect it is growth, but I am not sure.
South San Francisco: If I were a new Ph.D. wanting to do medicinal chemistry, I might consider this Johnson and Johnson-related postdoc. However, I'd sure want to know what happens at the end of two years.
Branchburg, NJ: Fascinating Lilly manufacturing support position; bet it's a lot of fun.
It has to be good: Smucker's hiring a R&D analytical chemist.
Interesting: Dr. Bronner's (the fancy? earthy? soap company) is looking for a R&D manager.
Petaluma, CA: Valeant wishes to hire a senior analytical scientist for pharma-related research; 104,000.00 - 176,500.00 offered.
Columbus, OH: Chemical Abstracts Services sure are hiring a lot of computer-related folks (5 positions); I wonder if they are hiring Ph.D. chemists these days?
Teterboro, NJ: Never heard of this sort of thing before, but of course, you know it exists:
Diana Food, A Division of Symrise, a leading supplier of ingredients to major food processors and manufactures worldwide, has an immediate opportunity for a highly motivated scientist to lead the development and application testing of food color products located at Teterboro in the New Jersey area.These are probably the folks to blame for blue M&Ms (this is a hoary joke.)

Under one of the CAS jobs as a prerequisite...

Dr. Bronner's advocate a lot of pseudoscience/anti-intellectualism in the world. I will cross my fingers that a chemist hire might change things in their shop, but I doubt it.
ReplyDeleteIn my first laboratory position, I worked for a contract soap manufacturer that made Dr. Bronner's soaps. I will never forget reading the label and noticing the instructions listed that described how to use the product for birth control. Although I think that "use" was removed from the label years later, it makes me think that working there would never be dull.
