Three tips for pharma recruiting with Sam
- August 22, 2023
Recruitment in the pharmaceutical industry
Many of the roles I work on require a strong understanding of the market and specific skill sets; for example the difference between Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics. Others have extremely talent short markets, particularly in pre-clinical or medical work. Securing interest from a candidate while remaining compliant with the PMCPA* is key. I dedicate an extensive level of research before working with a hiring manager and advertising the role.”
