Hi All!
When is the best time to apply for research positions? I would like to start working immediately after I graduate this Spring. I have a great deal of research experience so far (volunteering and low paying), but actual full time research assistant and junior scientist positions require a bachelor's - at least at my local universities and hospitals.
How early do labs begin the process to replace the assistants who are leaving for grad school? Say they begin posting positions in late March that are to begin in the summer - is it ok for me to apply before I have actually received my BA with the understanding that I would have it by the time the position began?
Can you tell I'm getting antsy?!
