For me…my search for finding a job of interest at the Biotechnology and Bioengineering Career Fair was unsuccessful. Just as I had anticipated, every representative that I spoke with was looking for hiring students to do lab work.

I got one response and it sounds promising for a second interview. 🙂 But I haven’t heard anything for sure, so I can’t make any assumptions at this point.
