FYI- you won't be able to start out as Legal. You'll have to be a "Contracts Manager" or something for a few years. There are tons of JD/MBAs in pharma and biotech so just know that it's not really a differentiator and Legal positions are extremely competitive and mostly nepotism.

Apply to PhRMA then join biotech as Govt Affairs lead and make bank

Not sure and would assume it varies by company and funding but certain PhRMA roles are $200k+ for policy director roles

Legal team

Corp Legal
Or Transactions Legal

Contracts Legal (not Transactions but all other contracts the company has to enter into)

I’ve worked with legal when I was in procurement. They reviewed the contracts that we signed with vendor. Although I mostly worked with a paralegal who reported to someone with a JD

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing. Before I always billed hourly, which made sense, but it’s becoming an issue now. Some companies don’t have a full days’ work, so it seems wrong to bill full days, and it allows me to juggle projects for different companies, but my billable hours are down. I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Asked ChatGTP to name best consulting firms for software due diligence. It failed to name EYP, A&M :(
