My experience with PharmaLogics has been notably positive, thanks to their timely follow-ups and proactive communication as the search process progressed. They consistently present a selection of strong candidates, demonstrating a solid understanding of our needs and the roles we need to fill. Importantly, I've observed that the quality and suitability of the candidate pool can vary significantly based on the job's location and whether the position is required to be in-house or remote. This is an inherent aspect of job searches, yet the team's effort to adapt and find the best match under these varying conditions has been commendable. Their ability to navigate these complexities while maintaining a high standard of candidate selection sets them apart in the recruiting field.

The team has been very responsive, flexible and accommodating to requests from both HR and hiring managers, often last minute needs that come up have been handled very well and much appreciated. On site support for large hiring events was also organized and not easy to manage, but was executed really well by Cam and team. Lots of compliments from hiring managers on a well run recruiting expansion - they integrated really well to be an extension of our internal TA team!

PharmaLogics Recruiting exhibited the highest standards of excellence throughout the entire recruitment process from my initial contact with Alexa Mangieri, operations scheduling by Raissa Silva, and my lead Megan Daniels. Megan was exceptional in her leadership and knowledge. The major key differentiating factors were as follows: A superb communication style that kept the team updated and allowed for a smooth flow of the process. Attention to detail ensuring a good fit at the executive level and that all requirements on both sides were being met. Commitment to uphold professional ethics and a respectful process. Efficient operations between team members to ensure all logistics ran as scheduled. I highly recommend them without reservations for your medical technology, pharmaceutical and biotechnology recruiting needs.

As a prospective candidate working with PharmaLogics, I had the pleasure of working with Rachel Sullivan (Recruiting) and Michelle Kazanowski (Project Management). From the very beginning working with both the communication, follow up, and commitment to their customers (candidates and clients) was apparent and honestly surprising. It has been almost a decade since I’ve been in the market for a new career opportunity and I was not expecting the type of proactive support and professional guidance received by both Rachel and Michelle. Rachel was the first one who connected with me about an opportunity- which I wasn’t ultimately in the market for, but there was something about Rachel that made it ‘easier’ for me to be open-minded and considerate to what is out there in the industry and opened my mind to something new. I’m grateful to Rachel for assisting me through the exercise of simply updating my resume (which it had been 7+ years since doing so) and providing feedback for what is useful based on her experience. Once Rachel got me in the door with a potential opportunity, Michele took over my continued support throughout interview process. We connected multiple times over the course of a few weeks and although I was not a selected candidate for the opportunity, Michelle made me feel important, relevant, and open to continue working with me on other opportunities (as needed). She followed up with the client immediately on questions I had and provided educational references for areas I wasn’t familiar with. Thank you Rachel and Michelle for caring so much about both sides of your business and working with me as someone who is ‘new’ to seeking other opportunities and advocating for myself as a candidate. I hope our paths cross again and look forward to staying connected! Highly recommend this company to anyone (candidate or client), they clearly take great pride in hiring the right staff!

I worked with both Zachary Born and Kyle Carver from this organization. I greatly enjoyed my time working with them and confidently give PharmaLogics 5 stars. Zachary started off things very positively and professionally and then connected me with Kyle, who then gave me the most thorough preparation interview I've ever had. Thanks to both Zach and Kyle! Keep up the great work helping poor people like me who are looking to find a good place to work.

I had the privilege of working with Darian Sarter from PharmaLogics during my recent job search and can't speak highly enough about the experience. Darian provided outstanding support and guidance throughout the recruitment process, which culminated in my hiring as Executive Director of Safety. From the onset, Darian was professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in my success. Her deep understanding of the pharmaceutical industry and her exceptional ability to match candidates with the right roles were instrumental in helping me navigate the process efficiently. Darian's meticulous attention to detail, regular communication, and expert advice made the entire process seamless. She made a usually stressful situation feel effortless and even enjoyable. Her assistance in preparing me for interviews was invaluable, equipping me with the necessary insights about the company and role. I am thrilled to have landed the role of Executive Director of Drug Safety, a position that aligns perfectly with my career aspirations. This would not have been possible without Darian's unwavering support and the professional resources of PharmaLogics. For anyone seeking new opportunities in the pharmaceutical sector, I wholeheartedly recommend Darian Sarter and the PharmaLogics team. Their commitment to their clients, industry knowledge, and thorough recruitment process sets them apart in the field. Thank you, Darian, and the PharmaLogics team for an outstanding recruitment experience. Your hard work and dedication have significantly impacted my career trajectory, and for that, I am immensely grateful.

Megan has been one of the best recruiters I've ever worked with. Throughout the process (which included 6 interviews), she was approachable, transparent, responsive, and encouraging. She went out of her way to provide me with information and answer questions. She also blended in seamlessly with the client's onboarding team--I didn't realize she was a PharmaLogics employee until I asked her where to leave positive feedback! Thanks again, Megan!

I had a wonderful experience with PharmaLogics, specifically with Megan Reid and Kalin Leuthold. Both of these women are warm, professional and approachable. Their industry knowledge and connections to companies are certainly helpful, but what makes them different is that they're likeable and easy to work with. They helped me secure a new role from start to finish in about three weeks. I wouldn't hesitate to work with PharmaLogics again, and you shouldn't either!

This review is for Shane DeCarlo at PharmaLogics Recruiting. Shane exhibited professionalism and arrived well-prepared. The interview format was great, he asked focused inquiries that appeared to be directly sourced from the hiring manager. He allowed me to inquire and provided thorough answers. Even if the hiring company were to reject my application, the opportunity to speak to Shane was worth my time.

During my job search, I was referred for a position with PharmaLogics Recruiting. I communicated with Christine Tsouros, Biverly Jeannis, and Yael Derickson from PharmaLogics. I would say all three of them - Christine, Biv and Yael were very approachable and helpful. Christine and Biv provided thorough guidance at each step of my hiring process. PharmaLogics members took personalized approach in the hiring for highly scrutinized position. I would highly recommend PharmaLogics for anyone who is looking for jobs with specialized careers and skills. This definitely portrays that the company’s culture is supportive, and they have passion for both job seekers and employers to get the right fit candidates. Thank you PharmaLogics!

Recruiting process for a regulatory affairs position was very easy from my end. Problems and questions were solved quickly, usually within the same day so they are really on their game. From first intro call to me accepting a new position took only 2-3 weeks. With their help, the only difficult portion from my point of view was making the decision on the final offer.
