Are you looking to further your career? Do you want to get a feel for what the current job market has to offer? The American Physical Society (APS)—the premier membership organization for physicists and the Division of Plasma Physics (DPP) —invites all job seekers to participate in the 51st Annual APS Division of Plasma Physics Job Fair.

This event is designed exclusively for organizations looking to hire high-level candidates with exceptional problem solving skills who can also bring specialized knowledge and innovation to new product and process development, teaching/training, scientific research, critical resource management, and more. Many of these physicists are at the cutting edge of such areas as high speed electronics, sophisticated mathematical analysis, sensors, safety studies, and massive data storage and processing.
