Note this is a video recording of an online meeting conducted using the Zoom.us platform. Inevitably such recordings suffer a little in terms of their production values because of the internet connectivity and quality of webcams. Despite that, they allow us to provide additional valuable insights in to the MedComms business and we can involve a wider range of speakers who can participate from the comfort of their own desks, wherever in the world they are.

In this webinar, we are joined by Katie Johnson, Talent Acquisition Associate at Ashfield Healthcare Communications and Eleanor Thomas, Medical Writer and a graduate of the Allegro programme. We hear about the development of the Allegro programme for aspiring Medical Writers over the past two years – taking the total number of people who have started their medical writing careers with Ashfield to more than 100 since its launch in January 2018 – and about how it continues to develop and support the needs of the business. And we answer questions from the audience.

It should be of interest to anyone who is looking for insights into MedComms as a career, Ashfield Healthcare Communications as a company, and how to maximise their chances of gaining an entry-level job.

Recorded 11 March 2020 as a MedComms Networking webinar. Produced by NetworkPharma.tv
