About the role

Chapman University is seeking a part-time Research Assistant to support ongoing projects on campus. You will work closely with a faculty mentor and student researchers, gaining hands-on experience in laboratory experiments, data collection, and literature review. The role emphasizes precise record-keeping, collaboration with a research team, and opportunities to develop technical laboratory skills and scientific communication within a vibrant university environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
