Merck Chemistry Employer Info Session
Merck Chemistry is currently hiring PhDs!
In partnership with the VU Chemistry Graduate Program and the BRET Office of Career Development ASPIRE Program, Merck will be hosting a Vanderbilt-specific virtual employer information session about Chemistry and Chemistry-related open positions for current graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.
Vanderbilt alumnus Brandon Vara, PhD, will be talking more about the current openings and what Merck is doing in the Chemistry and Chemical Biology field. Later that afternoon, Dr. Vara will be meeting one-on-one with PhD students and postdocs who submitted their resumes prior to the session.
