Super hard went on like 7 to 10 interviews. What ultimately did it was a friend emailed the hiring manager and that got me an interview. They usually want Pharma industry experience of which I didn’t have.

Hi there. Here, my desire is for referral(s) for Analytical Chemistry roles with any companies in NJ, MA (or nearby locations) so I can join my dear family/friends. Quick mention, I’m Canadian by nationality, but I possess every requirement - PhD education, experience, personality and motivation, and documentation to show demonstrate it all. Been hard luck even getting invited to talk with hiring managers.

I will reach out for any help, I’m available at <mcd301@usask.ca>
