Where to apply for open jobs at Lincoln Lab I have been working at MIT Lincoln Lab for over a year now and only recently discovered this link to apply to staff positions here. So I thought I would share it in this blog post. Direct website for open jobs at Lincoln Lab: http://careers.ll.mit.edu/ I joined as a subcontractor myself through another company so I did not know about the regular careers website until now. This is where you can see all open positions and apply to multiple jobs if you like. I believe the application is fairly simple requiring a resume and basic information. The cover letter is optional. Of course, please verify all information yourself. I will share part of an open job description below. This should give an idea of the types of roles available at the Lab.
