Chemical & Engineering News Classifieds Online and JobSpectrum.org have joined together to launch chemjobs, an online job Website dedicated to the employment needs of the chemical enterprise. Chemjobs (www.cen-chemjobs.org) features online-only job postings as well as current industry news and classified ads from Chemical & Engineering News, the weekly newsmagazine published by the American Chemical Society, the world's largest scientific society.

"As the leading newsmagazine of the chemical world, Chemical & Engineering News is exceptionally excited about the launch of chemjobs, which will be the chemical community's number one online job site," says Madeleine Jacobs, Editor-in-Chief of Chemical & Engineering News. "Especially in the tight job market that we're currently facing, chemjobs will enable job seekers to find their dream jobs and employers to find their dream candidates."

Chemjobs builds on the success of JobSpectrum.org, an online-only Web site from ACS, in serving the employment needs of chemical sciences professionals in business, government and academe. Chemjobs allows job seekers to post resumes, apply for positions online and sign up to receive e-mail job alerts.

The site hosts a wide range of job openings in chemical sciences -- from university professors and government agency scientists to industry researchers, lab technicians, marketing and sales representatives and managers. The job information provided is also designed to be valuable to students starting their careers as well as to veteran chemists.

More than 1,500 employers are currently registered with chemjobs and are using the site as an integral part of their recruitment strategy.

"The transition from JobSpectrum to chemjobs will be seamless," Jacobs adds, noting that anyone having questions about the transition should contact [email protected] or call 1-888-667-7988. Recruiters wanting more information on job posting opportunities should contact Ken Carroll, Manager of Chemical Publications Sales, at (610) 964-8061.
