If you're a postdoc or student considering employment in Europe and you plan to be around Boston in early February, head over to the 12th European Career Fair in Cambridge, Mass., put on by the MIT European Club.
The career fair aims to bring together employers with candidates -- students and postdocs in the sciences and engineering -- interested in working in Europe. The fair itself takes place on Saturday 2 February at MIT's Johnson Athletic Center, but there are associated activities taking place before and after: a panel discussion about globalization of the knowledge economy on Friday afternoon and interviews between employers and prospects on Sunday and Monday
While advance candidate registration that enabled the filing of resumes closed on 30 November (with some 4,000 resumes collected), unregistered candidates may still attend. So far, 141 employers plan to take part. About half of the employers are for-profit companies, particularly in engineering, technology, health care, life sciences, energy, and finance. The not-for-profit employers are mainly universities, government agencies, and research institutes.
Science Careers posted a special resources page for fair-goers. If this is your first career fair, or want to be better prepared than the last fair you attended, see the Science Careers instruction guide for these events.
