Unemployed food scientists are rare-usually we have to be recruited and the only ones that actually have to look for jobs are the ones who are starting out or the ones who don’t want to move away, or the ones that burned their bridges! There are very few of us out there and I encourage all job seekers to KNOW YOUR WORTH.
There are several websites out there that list jobs for food scientists, research chefs and anyone involved in food, technology and culinary arts!
The Research Chef Association Job Posting Website
The Institute of Food Science Job Search Page
Craigslist (yes, they do sometimes post food science jobs!)
