Do the physicist find work?

What kind of jobs do the physicist?

I have seen that most end teaching in high school.

I wonder which company or companies employing physicists, not just research centers or universities.

Where I can find a job?

I like research but if you are not a super genius or have very good grades, just never give you a position as a teacher or researcher.

Im American, but I dont mind working in Europe.

CERN, DARPA and any company who work with last generarion physic principles

last generation of physicists revolutionised economy with their computer models of market, also a lot of physicists are employed as programmers because of their reasoning skills

then if you do condensed matter physics you can also develop nanotech, superconductors, liquid crystals, polymers, and all kinds of shit, which is pretty employable

I have no idea why you're attributing this to physicists.

because I'm' a physicist myself

they didn't quite revolutionize the economy, their computer models were taken up by those who could see the crossing point for the software.

Bachelor in Physics from MSU here. I've wondered the same question you pose since I graduated 2 years ago.

You won't get a job with just an undergrad degree. A Masters' is expected if you want a job in the field (especially to teach); PhDs are highly encouraged.

Companies are hiring graduates with only undergrad degrees (check out AIP.org for their listings) but I find it hard to find a job that doesn't want prior experience.

Personally, I landed a one in a million job when I applied to be a scientific technician over craigslist. I put together/inspect armature scientific equipment for a 4 person company. I don't do anything nearly as technical or mathematically intensive as a researcher or applied physicist, but I love the fuck out of what I do. Pic related: it's a crystal radio I made by hand as well as some glow in the dark soap.

In case you missed the point: you'd be surprised by what doors are opened by a physics degree.

Man, I just saw this answer, thank you for responding. It has given me some encouragement. I was somewhat disappointed in trying to study physics, but I know that is what I like and eventually find a good job.
