Candidate Traits
The candidate must be meticulous when implementing and updating protocols and manuscripts, with strong attention to detail; however, they must also be able to step back and contribute to the overall scientific direction of each research project. That is, the candidate must have the elements of a tactician as well as a strategist on projects.
The candidate must be able to communicate effectively and clearly to all Aptagen team members, as well as to clients via email, on the phone, and in person during any on-site meetings. The candidate doesn’t have to be a seasoned scientist but must present themselves in a professional and scientific manner.
