Do these situations apply to you?

• I’m finishing my PhD in organic chemistry, but now I want to become a patent lawyer. How do I go about discussing this with my primary investigator?
• I just lost my job in a corporate restructuring and haven’t written a resume in over 15 years. Where do I start?
• I’ve been working at my company for over 10 years and feel that I deserve a pay raise. How do I negotiate this with my employer?
• I’m a chemist, and my career situation isn’t on this list. Who can help me?

Whatever your situation, the ACS Philadelphia Section’s Career Services Committee is here to help! ACS Career Consultant Lori Spangler will moderate this meeting to allow you to discuss your career concerns so that you may get the most out of your career. Bring your resume or cover letter if you like or just bring only your ideas and questions – all career concerns are fair topics for discussion!

The Career Club is free and open to all chemists, regardless of employment or student status.

The Community Center is located inside the Giant Super Food Store in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. It offers four, quiet conference rooms in an area totally separated from the supermarket. The Community Center is readily accessible from the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-276), PA 309 and PA 611, and it is a 10 minute walk from the Willow Grove SEPTA Regional Rail Station (Warminster Line).

PLEASE NOTE: You are more than welcome to bring food and drink to the Career Club, but your food and drink must be purchased at this Giant and not brought in from any outside vendors. This Giant Super Food Store offers a salad bar, a hot bar, pizza, sandwiches and coffee that is available for purchase. It is highly recommended that you purchase any food or drink before the start of the Career Club, as food services at the Giant may close during our meeting.
