I got a job!

It took long enough but I got a job as a biotech associate at a reputable firm. So far I love it. I wanted to share my perspectives on the process but the board is dominated by undergrads looking for BB opportunities and people who don't even come close to my sector. If that's not you, send me a pm if you're interested. I would like to help people in the same situation I had been in for over a year.

Mopman,

I have no interest in biotech at all (i hate drugs, doctors, hospitals, etc) but really REALLY appreciate this post. I wish more people on this forum were like you in regards to wanting to help out others.

Goodluck in the real world and kill it!

 

congrats

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
 

Trust me, man, anything you have to share will be much appreciated and used by a lot of people, please post!
