“I presently work as a research associate at the University of Maryland. Three years back when I decided to switch my research focus to fuel cells from batteries, I felt the need to get back to academic research (from industry) to get a solid footing and expertise in the field. I used several professional career network services/websites and realized that Physics Today was no doubt the best for candidates with physics and other interdisciplinary areas of training. It was through Physics Today Career Network that I found my present position. Both in terms of volume and quality, I find Physics Today’s site by far the best. The daily updates and ease of navigation is great."

“Your typical physics job involves specific research needs and projects and goes to a small subset of the physics community whose skills happen to match. For all the formal advertising rules that universities set, this process is often a short word-of-mouth deal between just a few physics people. However...many "atypical" jobs exist in physics. Such was my case, when hired by the University of Texas of the Permian Basin. There is no physics department at UTPB, and no college of engineering. When they wanted to expand the university and build a new teaching and test nuclear reactor, one of the first people they had to hire was a nuclear physicist. The project's leader is a nuclear chemist, so he turned to the Physics Today Career Network resume list and found me just as I finished my postdoc.”
