Generally SA hires into PEPI have 5-7 years industry experience - usually leadership or audit program backgrounds. That being said, I've seen career consultants start as SAs with 3 years experience - that's where career progression and specific project experience really matters.

Thanks! Excited just hoping I hear back! 😬😀

I am hesitating to take lead role. But for my experience (8 YOE) I will have to take up that role at least in my next switch.

Could you please suggest me how can I come out of this fear. I am afraid of taking lead role because of below things.

1. Taking ownership for entire team deliverables.
2. Had to attend every requirement call and as well as technical review calls. (When BA is not good, need to provide acceptance criteria points).
3. Providing and justifying resource/work estimates.

Looking at exits into pharma and biotech. Have an opp at a biotech at the SM level.
