Copyright © 2001 Stephen A. Edwards All rights reserved How to Find an Industry Job  Networking is Everything Good MS- and Ph.D-level jobs aren’t widely advertised Use your friends, advisors, contacts, etc. HR departments are useless: large trash cans Mailing resumes largely useless

Copyright © 2001 Stephen A. Edwards All rights reserved Large vs. Small Companies  Large companies Hiring process moves slowly: contact them first Less flexible on salary Better benefits (401(k), health, etc.) Tend to be better managed Easier to get pigeonholed  Small companies Hiring process quick: contact them last More flexible on salary Look out for bad management: enthusiasm alone not enough Easier to get a broader range of experience

Copyright © 2001 Stephen A. Edwards All rights reserved Types of Positions  Developers Many positions like this Quite a change from school Many, fast deadlines Corners need to be cut Joy of producing something that makes money Pain of secrecy  Researchers A dying breed? Only very large companies can afford More relaxed environment More academic: freedom to publish Easy to get dragged into doing development

Copyright © 2001 Stephen A. Edwards All rights reserved Standard Employment Package  Base salary, paid every two weeks Somewhat negotiable  Two weeks of vacation + some sick days Rarely negotiable  Health insurance (Dental? Vision?) Rarely negotiable  401(k) plan (retirement savings)  Stock options? Somewhat negotiable  Relocation Expenses May be possible Watch for tax implications: may be “income”
