Do pharma companies have rigid experience requirements?

I’m starting to apply to pharma companies after being on the agency side for 4 years. I’m applying to roles that want 6 years of experience. Will I be overlooked solely because I lack the number of years they want, or is it flexible? (For example at my agency I have 4 years of experience but the GCS role requires a minimum of 8).

Just wondering if it is worth my time to apply to associate director roles or wait it out a few more years.

I have been a practicing (patent prosecution) lawyer in different firms for about 20 years. I would love to do something more creative but still techie (computers, telecom, apps, etc.). I've always been interested in improving the software that practicing lawyers use (whether patent-specific or not). I am also kind of an academic at heart, but I live in a locale where professorial jobs are pretty limited and we're rooted here now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Does where you get your masters degree matter? I’m in an online environmental science masters program at an expensive “name-brand” school, but have colleagues telling me I should transfer to a less expensive program to save $ because no one cares about where your degree is from. Aside from the cost of it, I like my program, and the fact that I’m now connected to an incredible alumni network. And not gonna lie, I like the clout. Thoughts?
