现在生统方面工作貌似不太少？贴几个position大家来看看

一般recruiter 发来的东西我稍微看看就删了，电话一般也是让他们留言了

稍微贴贴最近2-3周收的哈，具体信息拿掉了，大家也就是娱乐一下。
将来有意图走这条路的，可以看看公司对求职者都是什么要求，自己有针对的提高一下。

我从前在其他帖子里面好像说过，PHD+3-5年，无论老中老外，似乎都有一定title，同学里面manager人数就很多的。至少到目前为止，情况还没大改变。

MS的虽然description上也有写的，但是个人感觉如今PHD太多了，MS+8 和 PHD +6相比，还真的没有太大竞争力。

生统Master很多，没PHD有竞争力。
不过我贴的也是level稍微高的工作，需要fresh MS的直接人家recruiter就知道不用发给我嘛，对吧？
小K 发表于 2010-7-9 02:30

那小K姐姐，有几年工作经验的master,会不会比较好找工作一点呢？我知道小k姐姐是这个领域的，小k姐姐也是Phd吗？

我怎么觉得location对找工作不是那么重要了，尤其是对PHD来说。如果一定要说重要的话，可能是对master找intern很重要，然后master将来找工作的话还是可以去到其他地方应聘的。。。
小K姐姐我的感觉对吗？

好帖啊，谢谢小k姐姐。有一点我没明白，小k姐姐的意思是phd现在太多，还是master太多？不过像上面提到的工作，一般都是招phd吧。

Hope this email finds you well.  My name is xxxx  and I am a recruiter in the Life Sciences industry.  I came across your background while recruiting for one of our clients and wanted to be sure that I introduced myself.

We are working with an exciting CRO start-up company.  They are based in Boston but the position can be located anywhere as it is a unique opportunity to work from home on a part-time, hourly basis.  They are looking for an experienced Biostatistician on a contract/freelance/consultant basis with experience in the any of the following fields:
·        几个疾病方向

We are at the beginning of the search for this position but if this skillset listed above proves too challenging to find, there may be flexibility on it.  If interested in this project please still let me know even without the experience mentioned above.  

The Biostatistician is needed on an ad-hoc hourly basis, over 1 year to:

·         Produce a Statistical Analysis Plan

·         Support in the creation of a publication plan

·         Analyze the data 4 times a year (maybe over three years)

I am not sure of your situation at this time, but please call or email me at your convenience if you have any interest for yourself or perhaps for a colleague.

再看一个start up，虽然biotech不成的很多，但是万一逮上一个成的，就发了

I hope all is well with you.



Please forgive the interruption in your day.  However, I am working on a new position and I thought, based on your background, that you might know someone who might be looking for something like this. It is a start-up environment so it's not without its risks, but the potential upside is huge. They call this position "Lead" now, but that is more a working title - the level and title are flexible and can go to Director. The position reports right to the CMO. Very competitive comp package with equity on signing.
