The only honest answer is that it might.

There are two common questions when it comes to resume distribution:

Should I post my resume to job sites?
According to USFDA, a combination product is one composed of any combination of a drug and device; biological product and device; drug and biological product
i>
Should I blast my resume to recruiters?

Yes, and yes. But only as a small part of a broader strategy that doesn't depend on shooting your res

; or drug, device, and biological product and fixed dose combination would include two or more combinations of drug.

Examples of combination products may in

Let's talk in more detail about blasting for a moment.

Resume blasting has gotten a bad rap, mostl

lude drug-coated devices, drugs packaged with delivery devices in medical kits, and drugs and devices packaged separately but intended to be used together.

for two reasons.

First, some would make the case that blasting your resume to (potentially) thousands of recruiters means your search isn't targeted enough.

Se

here is enormous increase in the number of combination products entering the market in the recent years. Combination products have proven advantages but fixe

cond, some disreputable blasting services made a habit of spamming recruiters with resumes that didn't even come close to what they wanted.

Let's deal with both.

You know, when people bring up those points, they're r

and physically. They need to rightly judge the benefits of the combination products and they have to even look at the risks involved when combining the produ

ight.

They're correct to say there's a risk to blasting (and to posting). It's possible you'll step on yourself. It's possible a potential employer will reject y

ts. Some of the combination products were well accepted by physicians while others suffered. Companies involved in development of combination products are fi

u for it. There's very little in life without risk. A job search that incorporates posting and blasting has increased risk. Them's the facts.

The spam issue is u

Which markets to tap where the combination products can do fairly well?
Which combination prod

So, after all that bad news...after all that increas

Which therapeutic categories to select?

As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel

The idea that you're not focused enough is true and false all at once. If you have an oustandingly prepared resume in a format that's easy to digest

As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de

Reputable services are going to get yo

Whether you get hired that way or not is another matter.
