Frequently Asked QuestionsFor which countries do you offer your service? Our service is available to job seekers looking to work in the United States, Canada, Ireland or the United Kingdom. Our lists are most complete in those areas, though we plan on including other European countries and Australia in the near future. Can you guarantee a job, or at least interviews? No. We find job listings and share that information with you and the rest is in your hands. We will be more than happy to offer advice on interviewing both in person and over the phone. We also offer resume-writing advice. Most clients get a formal (not automated) response from at least one job listing from their first batch, but this is not guaranteed. But also, some get many responses. It's unpredictable. How many job listings will you find? This depends on how specific you make your job attributes. It usually isn't a problem to find 20 solid job listings. Worth noting is these are listings that you are either qualified for or very close. It's not like those job search agents that send you e-mails all the time telling you about a process engineer job that requires 10 years experience, but you're looking for an entry level job. We find job listings that are potentially worthwhile for our clients. Do you do searches for all majors from any school? We work with scientific graduates mostly. They tend to come from biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, molecular biology, biology and biochemistry. That's certainly not an all-encompassing list. As for schools, in the past we have done searches for graduates of Northwestern, Michigan, South Florida, Texas, UC-San Diego, Harvard, UC-Davis and UC-Santa Cruz to name some. We have also done searches for manufacturing employees who never went to college. We can find jobs for anyone with either education or training that prepares them for the biotech and pharmaceutical industries. Why should I use you? Why not just use Monster or Indeed? It costs companies money to put job listings on those sites. Some, especially small ones, are not willing to do this. Small companies also don't pay recruiters as well, if they work with them at all. So recruiters won't tell you about most of these jobs since they don't get paid for finding you a job...they get paid for finding you a job at a company with which they have a recruiting agreement. Additionally, from experience we know that job titles can be hard to figure out. Even if you had a search engine of every job in the country, you just don't always know what to look for. Humans who know the industry can do this better than search engines. For example on a recent search we did, we found jobs at major biotech companies for Scientist I. These are PhD level jobs at large companies, but the same job title at a small biotech wanted an entry level BS graduate. These are things you can only know by spending time at career sites, which we do all the time. Finally, if you find a job posted on Monster, Indeed, Career Builder, etc, you are going to have difficulty getting an interview. If the job is high quality, it's going to garner a lot of applicants. At small companies they are just waiting and waiting for a good applicant to find their job postings. Let us help you find them. How long until I see some job postings? Once we have all the details, under normal circumstances, we can get back a list within 1-2 days. What if I require sponsorship to work ? Since we only find job listings, there isn't much we can do about situations like this. What has worked in the past is if the job posting specifically says they want applicants currently allowed to work in their country, we will not include these in the list we send to you if you don't want to see those jobs. If they don't explicitly say that, though, we will not know which jobs require sponsorship and will send you whatever we find. |
