, the ‘apply promptly’ part is real — twice this month I saw a remote regulatory role vanish in 24 hours, so I keep a 1-page teaching statement and a generic cover ready to tweak. For regulatory, filtering by ‘eCTD’ and ‘IND’ on https://careers.raps.org/ surfaces legit remote gigs fast, but watch for ‘remote within X state’ fine print. Anyone else seeing more ‘remote’ that’s hybrid?

Eyeing the remote regulatory roles, set a LinkedIn alert with “regulatory affairs” + “remote” and filter to Past 24 hours — I got two screens that way, and the RAPS board refreshes early: https://careers.raps.org/.

Real-time posting churn is brutal — . For the patent/bio roles, I’ve had the best luck watching Patently-O’s board (Jobs | Patently-O) and firing off a tailored note within hours; a surprising number say “remote/anywhere,” but small boutiques often expect prior OA drafting, so pace yourself. Anyone else noticing the academia upswing is skewing toward 1–2 year lectureships?
