Hi,
I am an industrial organic bench chemist with 22yrs of experience and I am 49 yrs old with a MS degree in chemistry. My position will get eliminated soon.
I participated in Dennis’ seminar yesterday and found it very informative. I did have a question to ask him, but didn’t have time. May be it can be addressed here now.
The question is,
Why is it not a good approach by competing for a lower level chemistry position (entry level) in return for a better chance of getting a job offer?
Thank you.
Regards,
Denis
