I have had a job opp from a recruiter earlier today. The job was at Amgen. It's in California. It's a regulatory job. This is going to be a remote position. I sent them my resume and this went through as a requisition for an associate. It was to pay $40/hr. It will be to work with their division that deals with molecular biology. That might be a bit too much for me to undertake. I did not learn mo bio a lot in my graduate and post doc years.

At Yale I worked on purification techniques to isolate the transporter protein. The next step for this was to learn mo bio and I did not get a good education on it. The person they told me to ask wasn't that happy to help me. She wasn't staying on there anyway. She found a job at some PA big deal think tank on cancer medicine. I also got sick in the middle of my training so I wasn't there for a few months. By the time I got back I was not that interested in going on with research. I did stay in it so I could keep a salary and then I transferred to another lab in NYC. That job had nothing to do with mo bio. So that was about it for me until I went to PU and that wasn't great either.

My supervisor in PU decided to leave just when we would have had some work to do. He claimed his son had ADHD and he needed to be with his son. He moved to Boston somewhere and he rose in the ranks for the co he worked with. I do not know if he really needed to help his son or if it was a ruse to leave PU, I cannot say. I do not know. This supervisor isn't someone I became close with in any way. He was a Tom type so it wasn't a good thing to have anything much to do with him.

So back to t his Amgen job. If I had to work on regulatory for this position then I would have to learn a lot of mo bio and what they did and how they did things to get this 'product' to be submitted to FDA or anyone else who might be reviewing it for approval. I do not have mo bio experience and I cannot say that I can know the risks involved in any submission that has mo bio reports. I cannot put my reputation on the line as a result. I have had good relatoinships withi FDA reviewers and so I do not want that to be marred by a problem in any subsequent regulatory job that I might get into.

If the recruiter actually wants to return my email and tell me updates I will tell him that I am not interested. Unless my current boss CF wants me to tell him now and preempt any further emails from this recruiter.

CF just told me he wants that done. So I will do it. Now.
