Overview
Join representatives from Merck South San Francisco (SSF) to learn about opportunities at Merck and develop your network! Merck scientists from the discovery chemistry, computational/structural chemistry, and pharmacokinetic groups will be attending. They’ll provide an overview of career opportunities at Merck and then move into breakout rooms where you can ask specific questions, get advice, and connect in smaller groups. This info session is especially great for students and postdocs who are mid-stage and might be interested in an industry career at a later stage.
Looking to prepare a little for this networking opportunity? Check out our short videos on networking conversations or our conversation starters. We also have some guidance on how to follow up afterwards!
