Gentlemen:

I sent you a previous version of this IBM Research call for ECT applicants for a number of 1-year placements at the IBM Research lab in Silicon Valley. Here’s an updated/simplified version.

As you know, we pay all expenses, provide housing, and pay a salary. But it’s the JOB CONTENT that makes these stand out, along with working at IBM Research, which is probably the most prestigious industry research lab in Silicon Valley.

Please let me know if there are others I should be dealing with to enable your students and graduates to become aware of these opportunities.

Regards, Tony
