✅ Next Steps – Recommendations

  • For MSc students

    • Apply to QA/QC/lab trainee roles (e.g., Jubilant, Foxx Life, Pankajakasthuri).

    • Customize your CV to highlight any instrumental skills (HPLC, GC, NMR).

    • Use platforms like LinkedIn, Shine.com, Glassdoor, Naukri.com; network with alumni from IISER, NCL, etc.

  • For PhD candidates

    • Target research scientist or process chemistry roles in pharma and specialty chemical companies.

    • Explore postdoc/academic-industry hybrid roles (e.g., computational chemistry, flow chemistry).

    • Attend walk-in interviews (like PI Industries) and leverage applications via Shine.com & Indeed.
