The Healthcare/Biotech/Pharma Career Community is focused on exploring the business of healthcare, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.

While applying to different positions, it is important to think about how to stand out amongst other applicants. One way to do so is by creating a portfolio.

Sometimes one is required, but even when it is not, providing an employer with your portfolio shows employers what you are capable of and adds immense value to your application.
