Boston Jobs

Since the economy is bad for many people, in an effort to make things a bit easier, we are going to try to do something a little different. As recruiters, we know who most of the companies are that are looking for people, even if the companies are not clients of ours. So we will try this experiment and see how it is received. If it goes well, we will expand from Boston Pharmaceutical jobs and Boston Biotechnology jobs and do other areas of the country as well.

Each day we will try to put a new Biotech company or Pharmaceutical company that is hiring into this section of the blog. We will also include a brief description of the Boston job openings. As an extra, we will also give you access to the names and titles of some of the people within the company that may be the hiring managers for these jobs, so those of you who are comfortable networking within a company will have a place to start. Let us know how this works out for you.

Our First company is a pharmaceutical company, the Abbott BioResearch Center in Worcester, Ma. They currently have jobs for about a dozen or more scientists, some with Manufacturing/GMP experience, others with Research Lab experience.

Getting to the career page on their site where their jobs are is a rather convoluted process. It is not one of the better sites when it comes to looking for jobs. You can do the www.abbott.com thing, but that will end up with you pulling out your hair trying to find the jobs. Instead, just go to  https://jobs.brassring.com/EN/ASP/TG/cim_home.asp?sec=1&partnerid=281&siteid=50 and when the page comes up, look to the left to where it says “Search Openings” and you are there. Kinda.

We had planned on putting the managers names on this page, but then we decided that some of them might not be comfortable seeing their names appear on a blog without their permission.
