Daily Pump Trap: 6/2/10 edition

Good morning (and welcome back, DPT!) There are 48 new positions posted between May 21 and June 1st on the ACS Careers website. Of those, 11 (23%) are academically connected and 1 (2%) are from our friends at Kelly Scientific Resources.

Are things getting better?: I dunno, but there seem to be more positions these days. "Seem" is the key word here.

Life Technologies: They're hiring these days; 3 positions (bioinorganic chemist!) in the last week or so and a position or two every month, it seems.

Are things getting better? (cont.): Sure seem like a lot of these positions are in the "Ph.D. 5-7 years" range. That's good news for someone, I'd think. (e.g. Pharmasset, Flamma, Agios)

Jobs of the future?: Clean Fuel is looking for a lab quality control manager; they make biofuel and the like. I'm going to guess that this counts as a "green collar" job. 

Dept. of little lost lambs: Invista (a polymer company, granted) is looking for an Electrical Reliability Engineer in the (virtual) pages of the American Chemical Society. Good luck.

Kelly positive reinforcement: One ad from KSR, in the "food chemist" vein. Hey, that's an improvement.
