[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because like PP, a lot of hiring managers are social people and not technical experts. So they're not going to make the best decisions when it comes to technical fields. My husband has worked at NIH as a contractor for years and he's seen his share of hiring managers for the various companies that contract with NIH. Some of them are like PP. Those are the companies that try to break into the research market and don't get very far. And some understand that to work as a research scientist at NIH, expertise in one's field is by very far, the top priority. [/quote] There’s a difference between technical expertise in say - proposal writing and being a scientist with a PhD that specializes in virus mutations. The former you can hire for personality and training. The latter - you can’t simply because the field and pool of talent is so narrow.[/quote]
