Medical Science Liaison Careers

Life science professionals aspiring for medical science liaison careers know first-hand the challenge that they face: their MSL job application seems to go into an internet “black hole”, recruiters don’t return their calls, and then when they do get a response, they are hit with the ubiquitous “we are looking for candidates with prior MSL experience”.

In All MSLs Started with No Medical Science Liaison Experience, Jane Y. Chin wastes no time in providing insight to aspiring MSLs by explaining what MSLs “actually do” in a typical week, what MSL hiring managers actually mean when they’re looking for “a team player”, and the #1 reason why recruiters don’t call back a MSL job seeker (and it’s not just because you “don’t have prior MSL experience”).

She offers field-tested advice on how you can inspire confidence at interviews so the employer is more willing in offering you a job, how to demonstrate teamwork or leadership if you haven’t worked in a corporate setting, and 3 checklists specifically to help you overcome the “no prior experience” objection.

This practical guide gives aspiring MSLs an insider’s look to breaking into the medical science liaison career. In its first year of publication, this book helped aspiring MSLs collectively gain more than $1 Million in new employment as MSLs during one of the toughest and most competitive MSL job markets in recent history.
