AIP's Career Services Division has job listings divided into three categories: academic; bachelor's positions; and government, nonprofit and other. The division also has a substantial list of other sites, including general employment sites and those of specific companies. Its home page has links to information on the division's Résumé Search Service and Bulletin Board. Many of AIP's member societies have job or résumé listings, resources for job seekers and links to a variety of other such sites.
