2009 CHEMPLOYMENT

    The job listing service of Santa Clara Valley Section has been maintained since 1988. These are ads for jobs available throughout the State of California and are placed by the companies and paid for by them. We publish them in our Newsletter, the Silicon Valley Chemist, and on our web page.  In 2009, 23 ads were run for 7 employers, a significant downturn from 2008, due to the downturn in the general economy. Seventeen (74%) of the ads came from just two employers.

   At least 10 letters are mailed per month to potential advertisers with information of our service, and a copy of the Newsletter. These letters are sent to companies new to us as they come to our attention because of ACS members new to our Section, or through the media with stories of the companies' advances. We also send letters to companies who have advertised with us in the past if it has been six months to a year since they have advertised with us.

   Revenue from the Chemployment Abstracts in 2009 was $1840. Each advertiser who lists a job with us is sent an invoice and a copy of the Newsletter.
