"Recognize that your service holds tremendous value in this industry, however, also recognize the work you need to also put in. Being a veteran may help get you an interview, but your veteran status alone will not get you a career." -?Jayme Hentig, Summer 2023 Academy?
This month we're proud to feature fellow Jayme Hentig, PhD, MBA, MPH(c) . Jayme was a part of our Summer 2023 Academy. He is a #neuroscientist who was in the Blood-based #MedDevice Industry and knew he wanted to return to #neuroscience, as well as take the next professional progression in his career during his job search, where he wanted to be in a #healthcare role where he could close the gap between patients and clinicians.
He is now a Clinical Medical Scientist with Premier Research .
Jayme's thoughts on the military transition process:
"Statistics don’t lie. Army and Marine veterans as well as enlisted service members, particularly E4 and below have the hardest time transitioning. While anyone is free to reach out to me, if you are an enlisted Army or Marine veteran please do not hesitate to ask for help. The world wants to see you succeed and this industry will be a better place with you in it."
What attracted Jayme to Premier Research?
"Premier Research is a Contract Research Organization where I get to help contribute to global phase 1-3 clinical trials in a variety of neuroscience-related therapeutic areas."
