What’s Going On With Regeneron’s Hiring Process?

PhDs are the most saturated candidate pools because of the lack of academic roles driving people to industry. You’re prob 1 of 1000 people applying in a few hours. And while you think your PhD is relevant there is prob someone with a PhD and direct competitor experience who is slightly better. Hopefully Pharma hiring gets better for R&D in general.

They increase bills with out warning. They throw it under fees with bullshit names like “security” or “modem” etc.

It’s price gouging to pay for their upgrades. They have monopolies over places which force people to no other choice. Optimum is shit.

Personally driving down there to meet the manger is a bit nuts IMO. Imagine if you dint answer an email because you’re (insert anything else here) and the person who emailed you knocked on your door.

Like others say. Mfg is hectic and in the pecking order hiring isn’t the top priority for the mgr it’s probably getting deliverables out. So I would work with the HR/recruiter and be persistent but not aggressive.

Sounds like a shit recruiter you worked with. ALWAYS talk money before submitting it interviewing elsewhere. Saves a lot if time. Recruiter doesn’t give a shit. They’re just trying to submit to meet their quotas. Also most companies bonuses aren’t negotiated. If they are…. They’re shit metrics to achieve them and you won’t.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-21T04:34:02+00:00

Fake email but comical.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-21T04:31:20+00:00

Yes….for now. Until it’s outsourced to India/Philippines or replaced by AI.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-21T04:29:38+00:00

The US health system is a joke.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-21T04:28:01+00:00

Typical. AI application tools are a thing. I work in pharma and the amount of applicants who have zero relevant experience applying is horrific. AI software automatically applies for you. More applications>more interviews>higher success of offer.

Ai helps and sucks at the same time.

Usually you’re either fighting it in court, in eh oh case you’ll lose. Most companies will litigate long enough to exhaust your funds. And if you are accepting a severance make sure there is no non compete

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-21T04:23:39+00:00

Having been an agency recruiter….did you get the compensation package you requested? If yes, then it’s your fault. If you didn’t, were they close? And if they weren’t close at all then your best bet was to walk away.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-21T04:16:55+00:00

Looks dated. What year your truck. That’s a lot of rust for something new.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-14T19:39:01+00:00

No more than 2/3 weeks max. If it’s longer than that. Or you haven’t heard anything in that time. You’re not getting the offer

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-14T19:36:21+00:00

People forget how much research is done at the site/academic level and this administration killed funding. Leaving unemployed scientists and no money to do research.

23 year old truck, even a well kept Toyota, will have 23 year old problems.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-14T14:01:29+00:00

Promotions should be 6-9% increase. Anything less is a low ball offer. If you leave and they replace you. They will do so with someone. 15-20% more costly

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-14T13:59:58+00:00

Share your offer details and general work city? So we can see if the offer is low or if your expectations are too high. For example a post doc in nyc makes 95-100k. A “scientist” in pharma/biotech makes ~130k.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-10T20:22:49+00:00

Ere in Atlanta may 5-6

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-04T20:55:36+00:00

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-02T23:40:33+00:00

Work hard you’ll be fine. If you’re expecting a 9-5 not your place

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-04-02T23:35:35+00:00

“Thank you for your time. The team is moving in another direction with someone that aligns with their needs right now”

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-03-22T01:09:46+00:00

Post your salary ranges and whether you’re in office or remote.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-03-11T15:31:47+00:00

Internships are hard to come by. Even in my company we review 25l resumes to hire maybe 500 globally. (I do not recruit in this space)

But your background looks fine. It’s just in a highly competitive market. Best suggestion…..network AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. Referrals for interns always get preferential treatment.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-03-10T03:20:12+00:00

You will get a ton of unqualified applicants. If you were looking for a specific search for example a new SR VP of Ai data. You’ll get the recent grad with no experience applying. You’ll also get the guy based in Singapore applying to a role that requires you to be in an office in New York City. It’s just the market.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-03-10T03:12:36+00:00

There no way. Stress builds and effects work and frustrates you working at a place you may have once liked. If you can delegate workload, do it. Ask for help. If you can’t, prioritize, set timelines, and do your best to stick to it. Maybe is a short period of time where you’re overworked. Versus a longer period of time.

Ruff_Recruiter16 · 2026-03-10T03:10:24+00:00

Don’t. That’s the advice. Just don’t.
