Job Hunting? – Social Media Career Resources in Pharma

As I mentioned last week, I have put together a data base – a constant work in progress – of pharma activities in social media.

One of the fields on which I can perform sort on is one where I have assigned each social media effort with a classification of its functional purpose.  So, I can sort to see which of the social media assets are product-based, which are disease-specific, which are corporate. One of the assigned categories is Career.

To that end, I thought it might be handy to provide potential job seekers with an overview of what kinds of social media career resources that have been provided by industry.

There are bound to be some missing here, so please email me with any pharma-sponsored resources that should be added.

Here are the ones I know of:

Facebook –

• Abbott Careers
• AbbVie Careers
• AstraZeneca Careers
• Medtronic Careers
• Merck Careers
• Novo Nordisk Graduate Programs

Twitter – While there appear to be a fair number of these, it should be noted that some of the feeds have not had entries in several months, some have sporadic entries, and still others are quite active.  Also if you care to follow just pharma career twitter feeds, a Pharma Jobs twitter list is available on the Eye on FDA Twitter feed.
