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.

This is stunning...absolutely gorgeous. I would love to see pictures of the mountain ranges and castles on the other sides.
ReplyDeleteGood views of the Belledonne and Vercours ranges can be found below. The mountain fortresses are built into the ridge in the second photo.

Oh, wow. Those are breathtaking. Thank you so much for sharing!
DeleteIncredible. Is this company, or school, looking for an american with process chem experience?
ReplyDeleteNote to self: Apply for beamtime as ESRF and find some way to have university cover for the flight and lodging...
ReplyDeletePlease be aware that laboratory positions are only open to real scientists ( i.e., physicists). There are several vacancies in the cafeteria suitable for chemists or others that can follow a cookbook. Geologists (MS or PhD only) may submit a resume to Facilities Management for the position of groundskeeper.

Dr. Sheldon Cooper
PS: There are three model train stores within 10 km of the laboratory
