The first
presentation of The Center for Biochemical and Biophysical Studies Spring
Seminar Series will be on Feb. 14,
2014 in LaTourette Hall 201 at noon. The speakers will be two recruiters
from Lab Support, a staffing agency that specializes in the placement of
scientists (primarily biologists, chemists and biochemists) into industrial and
academic lab positions. Lab Support has offices across the US, Canada and Europe
and the recruiters who will be visiting are from the Chicago office. They work
with employers who are looking for candidates for entry level positions up to
senior hires (B.S., M.S. and Ph.D.).
The recruiters
plan to give a presentation on important interview skills, preparing effective
resumes and what types of positions are available in the market today.
Undergraduate and graduate students will be able to meet with the recruiters
after the seminar in LaTourette Hall 300. CBBS will offer pizza during the
post-seminar gathering. If you plan to attend, please send Dr. Dillon a message
at jpd1@columbia.edu so that they know how much food to order.
