Sandia National Laboratories Work Values

Daily Duties at Sandia National Laboratories:

I am working in a lab at SNL for three months to further develop my laboratory skills. I learned and applied the standard operating procedures of the lab I am working in. I presented a technical seminar on my research at UCI. I learned various oral, written, presentation and documentation techniques, and how to appropriately compile data.

What they like about Sandia National Laboratories:

The social vibrance of a hiring firm is very important to you. Your ability to make and maintain friendships there is a critical part of your decision. You would likely be dissatisfied with a workplace that is quiet, cold, or otherwise not particularly social. When you investigate a new hiring company, ask recruiters, managers, and potential co-workers about the social life and opportunities there. This is especially important when you are relocating; moving dramatically alters your social sphere both inside and outside the workplace.
