Business Development Job Posted

Just received this email on Friday from Capricorn Pharma.  I have been trying to engage Capricorn to be more active in FredCoBio, with limited success.  I’d bet most people have never even heard of them.  They’re on English Muffin Way near the corner of Wedgewood Blvd.  So, pass this Job listing along to all of your BD associates.  Let’s flood them with requests and see what happens.

All,

Pls note we are currently looking for fresh Business Development Associates (maybe 2 or 3), who are looking to kick start their careers in the Pharmaceutical Industry!! These individuals need to be eager to learn and implement the strategies set forth, and take initiatives to complete the tasks on hand with high degree of excellence. Science background would be preferred and any pharmaceutical experience will be an added bonus!!

If any of you know of such candidates pls have them forward their resumes directly to the email – hr@capricornpharma.com . Shortlisted candidates will be called almost immediately.

Thank you all for your help!!

Regards,

Nivaran Kapur

Director Business Development

Capricorn Pharma Inc.

BioBeers January 2010

Holy Cow was it crowded last night! Definitely a record setting event, with the official body count reaching 197 biogeeks! Fantastic, but now I think we need a bigger venue!

Pretty sure everyone who’s anyone showed up last night. A special thanks to Chris and TalentWrx for picking up the tab (which was a bit larger than we expected due to the turn out) and the Matt Bender and th NBACC crew for the food and job offers.  Unfortunately, Battelle Corporate pulled the plug on Matt’s presentation literally 5 minutes before we started (due to not being “officially” approved for public consumption), but he’s promised to send me the approved powerpoint when it’s ready.

I apologize for being a slack blogger recently and will try to post some updates this weekend.

One scoop I have is that CNN was at MedImmune on Friday filming for a feature story on how the Stimulus Bill is helping the Vaccine markets.  And if you look closely at the picture, you’ll see a happy Frank Blanchard at the Bar.  He’s happy because SAIC-Frederick is #5 on the list of top 10 recipients of the ARRA spending.  Good for Frank and Good for FredCoBio.  The impact on the taxpayers is still in debate.
