My son will be completing B.Pharm final year in June 2024. Should he go for job or pursue Masters. Currently, the jobs that are available in sales and Marketing. My son wants to focus on production, quality assurances. Is there any other scope apart from sales/marketing or production/quality assurances?
Kindly advice.
Ans: Hello Santanu. First and foremost, thank you for contacting us. It is good to hear that your son will be completing his B.Pharm. degree in the next few months. Well, deciding to go for a job or master’s abroad depends on the demand of the field in the market, career goals, etc.
Talking about job opportunities, sales, and marketing is quite common in the pharmaceutical industry. There are opportunities like production, quality assurance, research and development, regulatory affairs, climatic trails, and a lot more. Your son can choose to apply for positions related to production or quality assurance as well.
If your son is unclear about a job at the moment, he can choose to pursue a master’s right after his bachelor's degree. A master’s degree would give him in-depth knowledge in specialised areas.
Encourage your son to network with professionals across the pharmaceutical industry and explore various internships in his field of choice. Additionally, your son can consider pursuing certifications or short-term courses related to production, quality, or related fields. This will add to his skills and make him industry-ready.
For further assistance you can get in touch with us.
