What kind of jobs can I get as a business graduate at a pharmaceutical company?

Generally your possibilities fall into four major fields: M&A/Business Development/Corporate development Marketing Sales Management Supply Management #1 is the best paying and most prestigious in the sense that it relates very closely to investment banking work. You can expect to earn six figures in your 20's if you are able to get a job in it. I'd say the average age of a mid level person here seems to be about 40s. Pay varies wildly at that level. This is a job you will get after a stint at an investment bank or consultancy. Some major companies will train you, but career progression is a bit slower and pay much lower.#2 Marketing is the more traditional path and a handful of companies will hire entry level people.  Pay tends to vary by company but is generous compared to other industries these days. Marketing tends to really encompass all late stage commercialization efforts so the title is a bit misleading. #3 Sales is the best paid by far. Someone in their 20s can easily earn 200k+ if they are a skilled sales person at the right company. Companies have training programs to induct new sales grads before they spread through the industry. This relies far more on interpersonal skills than a business knowledge and there is limited job security, but the pay more than makes up for it.#4 If you specialize in supply management or something similar and have a strong pharma knowledge this is a possibility. It is a very long term and very stable job with fairly generous pay. Your ability to grow that pay is limited, however. BD/Marking/Sales all have a huge range of salaries while in supply you will probably start in the high five figures and end your career somewhere in the 200s.
