Antibody was going through the sites of some chemical suppliers and stumbled across some job postings. Antibody was APPALLED at the extremely meager wages being offered for fairly specialized jobs. Antibody always lameneted the fact that she didn't pay more attention in school, which pretty much precluded any kind of career in the sciences. But seeing what they get paid, she realizes she is MUCH MUCH better off doing other things, check these job listing out. Why bother with an education if this is all it will get you? These wages are beyond pathetic.

Job Title: Analytical Chemist
Date Posted: 2011-10-14
Status: Active
Description: Analytical chemists typically use a diverse range of high tech methods to investigate the chemical nature of substances. The aim of such work is to identify and understand the substance and how it behaves under different conditions.
Typical work activities include:
• Analyzing samples from various sources to provide information on compounds or quantities of compounds present;
• Using analytical techniques and instrumentation, such as: o Thin layer chromatography o Melting point o Nuclear magnetic resonance o Optical rotation o Gas chromatography (GC) o High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) o Mass spectrometry o And various wet chemistry techniques o Elemental analysis
• Interpreting data and adhering to strict guidelines on documentation when recording data
• Reporting scientific results
• Working collaboratively in cross-functional teams
• Being aware of, and keeping up to date with, health and safety issues in all aspects of the work undertaking.
The successful candidate will have a B.Sc. in chemistry and proven problem solving skills combined with a solid knowledge of modern analytical methods.
The candidate will also have experience in modern spectroscopic techniques (NMR, MS, HPLC, IR) and their application to the characterization of small organic molecules.
Strong organizational and communication skills and previous industrial experience are essential.
Compensation: 32,000-34,000 (CDN)
