Top Pharma Companies on Social Media – And What You Can Learn From Them!

According to Tracy Stanton of Fiercepharmamarketing, pharmaceutical companies have so far shown caution with respect to the use of social media. Engagement with health care professionals and the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) is often in response to predictable regulatory-oriented discussions; however, engaging with patients and members of the public is risky and can cause damage to brand reputation. The leading pharmaceutial groups are adept at direct consumer advertising and handling challenges from the medical profession, but patients and the public are another matter. The IMS institute for Healthcare Informatics finds that less than 50 percent of leading drug makers engage in social media, and only ten use established marketing tools such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. There are good reasons for the reticence in engagement with patients and the public that include the lack of regulation with respect to business and social media use. Until regulations are defined, the risks involved in social media marketing and engagement may be uncertain and substantial. The claims that pharmaceutical companies make are monitored and can quickly cause intervention by the USFDA preventing products from reaching the market, or removing them from it. The FDA is, however, is active on social media. It is expected to provide guidelines in 2014. Until then, patients and the public will continue to derive most of their product information from Wikipedia, but the information can be unreliable. Some pharmaceutical companies are, therefore, using social media to represent more accurate data. Fiercepharmamarketing recommends a “softly, softly” approach. Action is required because impending regulation will cause most pharmaceutical companies to devise social media strategies. One that tests... read more

Study Says: IT Leaders Lack Confidence. Do You Fit the Mold?

Despite awareness of the risks that accompany inadequate investment in security tools such as backup and recovery, a study undertaken for EMC shows that 45 percent of IT managers consider their company’s ability to defend against possible IT disruptions inadequate. Moreover, 61 percent of respondents felt that way because they had experienced some IT calamity, such as loss of data, during the past year. The recent economic recession and the need for cost cutting could account for some negligence on the part of senior management. Excessive workload or inadequate resources were cited by 35 percent of respondents as contributing factors, and 33 percent cited poor planning, and insufficient knowledge and skills. Some IT managers claimed that the existing available technologies were insufficient from a trust perspective. However, the study implies that a communication gap is a bigger problem. The study by EMC reveals that IT managers and workers realize the need to provide security, but senior management are less enthusiastic; a communication gaps exists. Seventy percent of IT professionals recognize IT to be a driver of secure infrastructure, whereas only 50 percent of decision makers not involved in IT responded that they thought so. In contrast, senior management in China invest heavily in security measures to ensure complete trust both by employees and consumers. These companies consider that the success of cloud computing, the ethical use of Big Data, and social networking trends all depend on providing trust to the user that their information is safe and usable. A failure by US companies to do the same could affect competitiveness in the global technology market. IT managers and employees... read more

Why is Your Resume Ending Up in the Trash?

Your resume should serve a primary purpose. To communicate to the hiring manager that you are the right person for the job. The two key components of that goal are communicating and selling. Forbes recently interviewed recruiters to discover why a resume might be thrown out. Here are the responses and some tips to ensure that your resume remains at the top of the pile. You fail to meet the job requirements. You cannot convince a hiring manager or recruiter that you are the right person for the job if you don’t understand what skills the employer is seeking. Study the job description and research the firm. Tailor your resume to reflect the key traits that they require and eliminate other non-essential information. Deliver a clear, unequivocal message. Highlight your suitability in the cover letter and eliminate everything else. The interview is the time to elaborate on your additional skills and experience. You fail to connect. Target your resume. To connect, you must show that you understand the company, its culture, and that you will assimilate quickly. Link your experience with company initiatives. This requires a knowledge of the company and tailoring your resume and cover letter. Show that your past experience is relevant to company activities and differentiate yourself from the competition. Add some personality and humor if you think it appropriate for that particular company. No attention to detail. Communicate clearly and without error. Follow the job posting instructions to the letter, and ensure no spelling or grammatical errors. Ensure that you use the same job title that the company advertised including any job numbers. Design your... read more
