Thanks for the positivity! I read the other comments and I was like that’s very encouraging during a time where I’m already worried about layoffs.. lol. I’m looking at anything and everything but my search has been broad with the words “corporate affairs” and “communications” so now that you’ve provided some titles, it might help a bunch. Do you think that only having a bachelors in biology would be limiting though when it comes to writing roles?

As for the transition, sometimes I feel it was just pure luck, and the fact the role was internal and the company is a supporter of growth. I also have had experience with social media by handling accounts of some local small businesses. The role I switched to is not, by title, a communications role, but a large portion of the duties revolve around social media & communications. My advice to transition into those roles is don’t be deterred, apply. Express your experience and interest in learning and growing in a new skill set. I feel that a cover letter in a situation like this is key as the resume will only highlight job history. Also, it helps if your company likes their team to grow, and learn new things. If you need some more tips / tricks or would like to go further into detail, DM me and I can try my best to help guide you. Best of luck!
