CAREER SUPPORT

Your experience isn't the problem. How the market reads it might be.

For pharma and biotech professionals, and clinicians moving into industry, who need hiring managers to see what they can actually do. Built from 20+ years of building, leading, and hiring Medical Affairs and Field Medical teams.

THE REAL GAP

Translation, not more credentials

Most people who stall in a search don't lack experience. Their résumé, profile, and interview answers signal the wrong level, the wrong function, or a role the market no longer hires for.

Talmedica's career tools start from how a hiring manager in Medical Affairs, Field Medical, or Clinical actually reads your background, then help you reposition what you've done so it maps to what they're trying to fill.

INFLECTION POINTS

Career support when the next move isn’t straightforward

Entering the industry, repositioning after disruption, establishing yourself as a leader. Different situations, same problem: what got you here doesn’t automatically translate to what comes next.

Breaking into Medical Affairs

For clinicians and scientists moving into industry: how Medical Affairs and field roles actually work, what hiring managers screen for, and how to position experience you already have.

IN THEIR WORDS

Same experience. Read differently.

BREAKING IN

“She teased out my most valuable skills and work experiences — some stuff that I hadn’t even thought to include in my C.V. … 2.5 months after starting her program, I accepted a job offer at Novartis and increased my annual income by 100k.”

Catherine Canlas, DNP

Retail clinic → Associate Medical Director, Rare Disease, Novartis

AFTER A LAYOFF

“She doesn’t just offer generic advice, she delivers focused clarity on what hiring managers look for in candidates. Her insights into positioning, realistic timelines, and market expectations saved me from endless speculation.”

KK Hamilton, PharmD

Laid off → Director, Medical Affairs Governance, RevMed

STEPPING INTO LEADERSHIP

“She helped me to clarify how I think about and articulate my value and personal brand, from my CV to my digital profile to interview techniques. … Her approach is strategic, practical, and tailored — and the results speak for themselves.”

Dawn Piercy, DNP

Field Medical Director, Madrigal Pharmaceuticals

FOR EMPLOYERS

Industry-specific transition support for pharma and biotech teams

Traditional outplacement is built to work across every industry. Your people are leaving roles that only exist in pharma and biotech, and they’re entering a market with its own titles, hiring expectations, and shifting team structures.

Talmedica provides specialized transition support for Medical Affairs, Field Medical, Clinical, and adjacent roles, informed by 20+ years of building, leading, and hiring these teams. Delivered in cohorts, it covers how the market reads each person’s experience, positioning for the roles that fit, and interview and presentation preparation.

It’s designed to complement your existing outplacement program, adding the industry depth a generalist provider can’t.
