    Sales certainly - though for chemical instrumentation they prefer a bit of specialist postgrad experience with the same techniques.

    Knew a guy who did Chem & Computing and then became a freelance marketing consultant, then a frelance journalist & now a PR consultant.

    I finished a chemistry degree and the prospect of working in a lab didnt appeal to me. I did the DBS (Higher Diploma in Business Studies) and walked into a technical sales job, never looked back.
