I would read the FDA Guidance Documents on Pharmacovigilance. Apply to contract research organizations (CROs) to get your foot in the door (the starting pay is low). But after you get experience you can apply to Pharma jobs and get paid >100k.
Get a few PV certificates under your belt from DIA or Temple. Then apply to a CRO as a safety data processor or similar- I can tell you though you prob make more in retail then you will in PV for a while

I recommend reaching out to people already in the field. Pharma tends to be big on referrals.
Agree with others regarding PV certifications. Your pay may be low at first but with time and experience you’ll get there.
