Thanks @gleem!

Students often forget or never consider this resource.
 
There is another way that Physics Today can help. Also, other periodicals of this same general nature. When you are picking out what university to apply to, or what graduate adviser to try to work for, consider reading the placement announcements. Find out where people who graduated ahead of you got jobs. If a particular prof sends many of his students to work at X, and if X appeals to you, then maybe that's the prof for you. But if X is just not your thing, maybe you need to turn the page.
