Hi everyone,

I had a few questions I was hoping this community could help with:

• How is the current job market for entry-level medical writing roles?
• Is a PhD typically required, or is a Master’s (MS, MPH, etc.) sufficient to break in?
• What kind of experience or skills do employers usually expect for entry-level positions?
• Do you need to build a portfolio, blog, or writing samples to be competitive?
• Would anyone be open to sharing or describing what a strong entry-level resume looks like for this field?

I’m trying to understand how to position myself for roles in medical communications, regulatory writing, or publications.

Any advice, personal experiences, or resources would be super helpful, especially from those who transitioned into medical writing after a Master’s!

Thanks in advance :)
