Access Career Resources > Job Search Strategies
- Dedicate your time to building and maintaining relationships. Most people get their jobs through networking rather than formal job postings.
- Instructors, department staff, and your college’s career services office are all great resources for job leads.
- Join a professional association. This is a terrific place to network with colleagues and learn about potential job openings. Members may also have access to a listserv with job leads.
- Stay connected with other Nanoscience alumni. Our Facebook and LinkedIn groups have been designed for this purpose. Your college may also have alumni gatherings or resources.
- When searching online, use keywords that match the job title and where you want to work.
- Contact companies who have hired Nanotechnology graduates. Request informational Interviews.
- Meet with a Career Services Specialist from your college who can discuss job search techniques and the steps to successful networking with you.
