I don't understand why you don't work in a chemical company.

everything went better than expected

but i still gotta explain to friends why i'm going into my junior year just as they're all graduating

lol because its chemistry not chemical engineering, i have no idea how to do 99% of the things relevant to a chem company.

chem companies don't care about chemistry undegrads they want pure Chem Phds, or they want Chem engineers.

also there aren't any chem companies in my area...nothing major anyway, just some minor ones with a couple phds and a couple engineers

If you want science, you better head to grad school.

Hell, the ACS will take away your license after I think two years of working if you dont acquire a graduate degree in chem.

Hell, get a masters in ChemE

Go to pharmacy school

Chem can transition pretty easily into chemE/biochemE, or pharmacy.

OP why didnt you study Che Eng? A BS in Chemestry is for people going for the Phd.

B.Sc. Chem grads are still employed. In the industry chem majors do things like lab analyses for Chemical Engineers and pretty much anything else that would cost too much time for a engineer to do. PhD's are hired primarily for R&D. The competition for these jobs are tough though, because there so many Chem bsc's out there, you'd be better of with a graduate degree.

>>4779293idiot physics undergrad
>A physics major can still be an engineer
No, unless you think doing a Pr.Eng.-less technicians work is equivalent to being an engineer. A b.sc. in Physics will get you about as far as a b.sc. in Chemistry.

>>4779296
>Chem can transition pretty easily into chemE/biochemE, or pharmacy.
>pharmacy.
Yes, but >chemE: no.
It's a completely different field, most of chemE has very little to do with chemistry.
A biochemE is a ChemE with a specialization.

Fucker ate my post. tl;dr version:

Apply for jobs using these websites (in order):

careerbuilder, indeed, simplyhired, monster, jobfox, university job system, niche job boards (like nature.com/naturejobs), local ads, craigslist/backpage, linkedin.com

Apply outside of your locality or country if you must.
