description Holding a Ph.D. or other doctoral degree in the biological sciences used to allow for only one main career path. Faculty positions at either research-intensive universities or at predominantly teaching institutions defined the career path very well. The situation is considerably more complex now. Many individuals decide to pursue careers in for-profit organizations, either by personal preference, geographic needs, or simply as an expedient way to continue in biology in a meaningful way. This article arises from the need to define a better understanding of the nature of corporate job seeking for potential job applicants. The author draws upon his experience over a thirty-year scientific career in industry and academics. The distinctions he makes are helpful for job-seekers in this new environment.
