Considering a career in MedComms? If so, you’ll have lots of Qs about who the employers are, what MedComms writers do, & how you can learn more...
In this MedComms explainer video, I answer all these Qs and more:

PSA: If you're a grad student/PhD candidate (Especially in STEM, but others too), CREATE a LinkedIn profile. As someone part of interview/hiring processes in multiple industries now, THAT IS the first thing people will check.

Students & Postdocs applying for positions beyond academia will need a carefully tailored resume. But where do I start and what should I include? Sharing some hopefully helpful tips & strategies to get started.
Resumes - a quick thread.

PSA for #PhDs:
If,
YOU are NOT a 100% sure of an academic job
Then,
invest in urself and talk to people.
This can happen organically, but LinkedIn is a great start!
Actually, you'll benefit from LI in academia too. I've seen it happen!
