Introduction
Breaking into the biotech or pharma industry as a fresher can feel overwhelming. Most students worry about experience, references, or limited vacancies.
But the good news is—some companies are actually fresher-friendly.
These companies regularly hire fresh graduates, run trainee programs, conduct walk-in interviews, and provide on-the-job training. You don’t always need strong connections or years of experience.
