I personally favor advertising compared to PR or Med Ed (personal bias). But I think either PR or Advertising would be a good (possibly easier) starting route versus Med Ed.

Even if you are in account currently with something like retail, I assume a lot of agencies might look at you to start at a more junior level then you may be now since Pharma work has a lot more interdependencies given FDA review and compliance.

Recommend reading into MM+M, where they list out top healthcare agencies. Of course there are other smaller agencies that don’t make this list, but still good starting point to see what agencies are doing healthcare marketing. Also PR Week for a more PR focus healthcare agencies.

Feel free to message me separately if needed and I will try to help as much as I can.

I need advice.
I work at an manufacturing company as a technician. My job title is a technician but they use me as an engineer as-well. There are three techs overall in the company. My boss who hired me understands what my degree is in so he uses me to design parts and write reports. The plant manager doesn’t know my skills so anytime I’m in the office working he calls me to the floor to do something the other techs can do. Should I have a talk with the boss about it?

I’m so scared to let a relationship that gives me anxiety go because I’m 36 F and feel like I’m not going to find anyone else. He’s not a horrible person, but he can be inconsistent. When I bring it up to him he says he’ll try harder but then always goes back to default. I stick around because I think it’s more a personality trait and not that he’s not interested in me (maybe I’m naïve). Could really use some encouragement from a bunch of strangers.

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services.

Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.
