What is Recruitment Fraud?
Recruitment fraud is a sophisticated scam offering fake job opportunities to job seekers.

Meet Our People
Our company fosters innovation, knowledge sharing and teamwork for long-term success. We are committed to the development of your career, giving you opportunities to learn and grow. Simply put, we make a difference for you, so you can make a difference in the world. Here’s what some of our employees have to say about their experience.
"There's never a day I don't think about how my team truly helps accelerate scientific research."
Leading Next-Generation Technology from Concept to Launch
"When I was a chemist, I always wondered how the products I used for my experiments could be better. I suppose that inquisitive spirit is what brought me to PerkinElmer," said Manny Farag, Gas Chromatography (GC) product manager. Working out of the Company's Shelton, CT site, which manufactures life sciences research instruments for environmental and industrial applications, Manny leverages past experiences using the first-generation Autosystem® GC to lead his team that develops new models. The recently launched Clarus® 590 and 690 GC products are the latest innovations coming from his team of talented engineers and product experts.
Ever since joining the Company six years ago, Manny has played a pivotal role in helping see an array of PerkinElmer's GC products from concept to launch, including the TurboMatrix™ Thermal Desorber and Clarus SQ8MS. "I went from "the bench" where I used these products to managing how and where to upgrade their features so they could remain relevant in this competitive industry," said Manny.
"Honestly, what I enjoy most about my job is the opportunity to be innovative in my problem solving. Sometimes when engineers hit a road block, a project can be stalled for weeks. I try to be methodical in the way I approach these situations by taking the time to listen to their ideas, test the most feasible, and often combine them to find the best resolution," he said.
"Staying close to our customers and continuously monitoring the success of our technology is what keeps me satisfied as a product manager. There's never a day I don't think about how my team truly helps accelerate scientific research," he said. Now that the new Clarus GC instruments have launched, Manny is looking forward to gathering data from customers and cascading insights to his team for the next models to hit the market. Thanks to employees like Manny, PerkinElmer is well positioned to continue driving innovation across the industry.
"Being innovative in my job is second nature. I'm constantly discovering ways to make methods easier and higher performing for the industry."
Advancing Environmental Science Above and Beyond
"What I enjoy most about my job is that it pulls me away from the bench and encourages me to learn the intricacies of our customers' needs and requirements. Every scientist knows that solutions don't come easy, but they're certainly worth the chase," said Lee Marotta, senior field application scientist. Since joining PerkinElmer over 25 years ago, Lee has helped the Company establish a fruitful relationship with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) by assisting them in optimizing methods and solutions using our TurboMatrix™ Automated Thermal Desorber (ATD) technology, which is widely considered the "gold standard" in the industry. The EPA uses the instrument to standardize many of its air monitoring applications, such as EPA methods TO-17 and 325, designed to regulate emissions of hazardous air pollutants across the country. Today, Lee's skills and passion for environmental science continues to fuel new innovations being adopted by customers around the world. "When customers need to refine their approach to operating in a sustainable society, they employ solutions that I have the pleasure of working on," said Lee.
As an applications scientist, she is responsible for answering customer calls when technical inquiries are more complex or unique. "Sometimes when customer issues involve lab work, I go as far as testing samples or a specific application to ensure they're left satisfied. Going the extra mile isn't just in my job description, it's in my DNA," she said.
Aside from her work on air, Lee has also enhanced several water and soil methods utilizing PerkinElmer's Clarus® SQ8 GCMS to measure toxic compounds in environmental and industrial samples. "Being innovative in my job is second nature because it requires a lot of critical thinking, scientific expertise, and customer care. I'm constantly discovering ways to make methods easier and higher performing for the industry," she said. Because of Lee's reputation, customers truly value her insight and trust her judgement as they work toward scientific breakthroughs together.
"It's very humbling to learn that customers can improve their science thanks to the work I've done," she said. This year, Lee is looking forward to collaborating with the state of Maryland on real soil vapor intrusion problems proving our solutions protect human health. She also plans to develop two new scientific methods for researchers in the petroleum industry. Lee's approach to solving unique challenges over the last two decades has made her a valued member of PerkinElmer, and we look forward to seeing how her contributions continue to help improve the environment.
