The Boston Chemistry job market is oversaturated. If you do decide to focus on Boston, realize your longevity is limited, and make sure that you have a second career to transition into.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-76496018659339834112015-01-20T15:24:30.866-05:002015-01-20T15:24:30.866-05:00Enanta is hiring (mostly entry level) but some hig...Enanta is hiring (mostly entry level) but some higher up process and toxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-43047051569166901292015-01-20T11:37:27.027-05:002015-01-20T11:37:27.027-05:00There's only one Ivy in town.There's only one Ivy in town.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-89458841989662658832015-01-20T10:27:48.759-05:002015-01-20T10:27:48.759-05:00I've been looking for a job in the Boston area...I've been looking for a job in the Boston area for over a year and haven't gotten so much as a phone screen.
