General question for the more experienced people here. Given the larger supply of MSc students/graduates in Ireland. Are companies seeing a tangible benefit/improvement in quality of work with MSc compared to BSc workers?

Anybody known if Lilly are gonna be hiring again, i know theres been talk of a downturn with them but they just announced massive profits so surely site will just be repurposed to other drugs if original prospects fail

Anyone notice a huge increase recently in posts not related to Ireland recently? I'm guessing it's because of Eire not Ireland in the name. It's fairly cluttering up the sub, hopefully mods can do something about it.

Hi all, I have a level 8 in biopharmaceutical science with 5 years experience in a medical laboratory. I am querying moving to a different area and wondering what job titles/opportunities other people are in with the same degree or experience? Sorry if my wording isn’t the best 😅 thank you.

Hi, I am starting in Amgen in a few weeks in QC What is the site like, and do you have access to the site facilities gym canteen etc as a contractor?

I'm looking for opinions from more experienced professionals on what they would do in this situation.

I started as a contractor for Company A about 2 weeks ago, but I also did an interview for Company B the day before starting Company A. Company B have now offered me a contract position (same role, negligible difference in pay). Would it be very unproffessional to hand in my notice after only 2 weeks? My fear is that I would burn bridges by doing this and make myself unemployable to Company A if I ever decide to return. All opinions are appreciated!

EDIT: Company A would let me save more money since I can stay with family but I would much prefer the location of Company B even if I would have to rent/commute.

Has anyone worked for / work for CLS in galway? Have not heard much about it or seen it on this sub. Does anyone have any experience with them? Anything would be great thanks. Wondering how the training is / reputation.

I have just received an offer from Amgen I have been told I need to provide 5 years worth of employment references. I have worked lots of odd jobs and have no clue how I am going to provide this. Do they actually check all 5 years worth?
