Important Recruiter Note
The ideal candidate is more likely a PV/Product Safety coordinator, case intake associate, safety data/coding specialist, with strong medical terminology and database experience.
Soft Skills fit: They tend to hire detail oriented worker who likes data entry and coding only, not higher level workers. They reject senior candidates who are Clinical Safety Specialists or have higher degrees as overqualified often. English communication skills seem essential. This does not appear to be meant for professional growth. It is meant to only be doing Coordinator and Coding work.
