Still attempting to pivot out of academia and into a pharma consulting, real-world evidence, outcomes research, medical writing or data science role
It's not a crisis right now, but the job I'm in won't last forever, it turns out
I'm actually hoping to get a job with a big pharma company, so if anyone here lives in that world or can help me get in, would appreciate very much
:boost_requested:
Also, :NoAt: no need to reply if you're going to tell me about how bad big pharma is
@researchfairy have you heard of/tried Prime Global?
I was referred to them by a group leader at my old labs, got pretty far with it but got a charity job instead. Not sure how they are with remote tho, I was going to be based in Ldn https://primeglobalpeople.com/
@noodlemaz Checking my spreadsheet, I've applied there three times for jobs I saw on Linkedin (med comms and med writer jobs) but no luck hearing back yet
I'll add them to my daily check though, thanks for reminding me about them
@noodlemaz Btw, if you know anyone who works there and you could connect me, I'd love to say hi :)
@researchfairy hmm @jakobpunkt dost thou know of anyplace currently hiring..?
@researchfairy as an aside, I have a friend who works in a secure government role dealing with fraudulent pharma claims (ie stopping snake oil imports/sales/advertising). Pretty interesting. I suppose you know about that field of work but just in case.
Smart move getting out of academia, it f*ing sucks.
