Hello, everyone! With graduation deadlines looming, the iJOBS blog has decided to run a survey to see what everyone (whether graduating this May or not) is planning to do after their time at Rutgers comes to a close.
We would greatly appreciate it if you took the time to fill out this very brief (5 questions, and one of them isn't mandatory) survey HERE. We are aiming for 75 responses! Your answers will be anonymous.
Hi everyone! I’m Urmimala, a third year Ph.D. candidate in the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology program. To me science has always been about figuring out the unknown through experimentation.

The Rutgers Spring 2016 Career & Internship Mega Fair took place over two days in early February and I made a point to attend. As some of you may know, I joined the active job seeker ranks in late 2015, complete with attending networking events (see my take on a BioHub networking event here) and career fairs. I have gained some experiences that I can share with the rest of you on what works, what doesn’t, and what can make some of the hiring processes you go through that much easier.
