Welcome to your first pharma job!

Welcome to the site!

Yourfirstpharmajob.com was created to fill a need.  As a headhunter who specializes in recruiting experienced professionals for rewarding positions in all aspects of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sector, my job requires me to understand what companies are looking for when they hire employees.

Often, I get calls, emails and resumes from people who are eager to be a part of this industry.  They have heard that working for a pharmaceutical company can be very rewarding.  Many are from recent graduates with an educational background in the life sciences, who want to put what they’ve learned to work in a relevant career.

Unfortunately, I can rarely help these people directly.  When companies engage the services of a headhunter, they are usually looking for us to provide them with candidates who have direct, relevant experience in the position being filled.

So, what is a person without experience to do?  I won’t pretend it will be easy for you to get your foot in the door, but there are things that you can do to meet people in the industry and convince them to give you a chance.  This site is all about giving you the tools and information you need to set yourself up for success.  Good luck!
