Rx Lateral Move & Outlook

Hey guys, going to start with some career context: spent about 2 years total in IB doing capital markets / public equities at a small shop. Moved to a startup to do corp dev / lead work for a biotech. Starting to get a little stir crazy and miss finance.

Eyeing up rx for a few reasons, economic factors and such, but missing finance and was always just interested in that field even when in my last role.

I’m NYC based but willing to relocate. Any knowledge on recruiting cycles, comp, breaking in, what to refresh (been a bit since I’ve been in “finance mode”) - anything and everything.

Thanks for the input to whoever does, appreciate the help! Would love to make the jump.
