The search to find talent in the life sciences isn’t always an easy pursuit. It requires ongoing strategies for attracting, retaining and developing the right candidates. Talent acquisition and employment practices are constantly changing in the pharma industry. This is why employers must stay up to date with the latest hiring trends.
Popular online job platforms (such as Indeed, ZipRecruiter and other broader job posting websites) are optimized for unemployed job seekers. These job platforms are far too generic and they often lead to a plethora of unqualified applications.
Tapping into a more specialized life science job search platform can shorten the process of weeding out the unqualified applicants. Read more on how to navigate through the Xtalks Job Search portal and how this may prove to be a highly valuable resource in your talent search.
