Jan. 2006

Gary Kravetz, founder and CEO of Santa Barbara Placement, asked me if I knew anyone who might be interested in an entry office position for a (local, I believe) company that sells chemicals.   The company is looking to hire someone with a knowledge of (and probably a BS in) chem -- I do not know the salary range.   They might be willing to hire someone well on their way to a degree.  I do not know whether they would consider a part-time employee now that could become a full-time one
after graduation, but it's a possibility.

Anyone interested in finding out more about this position should contact Gary
Kravetz, gary@nccx.com.
