Re: MSE job ideas--Columbus, OH

I am struggling to find a electronic materials/physics job in the
Columbus, OH area for a new PhD grad. I initially thought that because
of OSU and Battelle I'd be able to find a few startups, but so far no
luck. I'm interested in flexible solar cells and other types of thin
films, but I'd take anything in this area that was challenging with
decent pay.

I'm trying to stay in the same area as my fiance' (we are getting a
fabulous introduction to the fun of being a two-career family) so ANY
ideas would be appreciated.

My first suggestion would be to look up local chapters of technical
societies like ASM International at
http://www.iwaynet.net/~asmcolumbus/
Chapter officers usually know what is going on and who might be looking
for people.

For smaller start-up firms job listings might be on Craig's list
(rather than expensive national listings) so see:
