What\u2019s really essential about our core values is how they help drive accountability with our internal colleagues and how they help us manage relationships with our external customers. When you visit our careers site,&nbsp; you can find descriptions as to how our 4i values have different applications across the business, and you\u2019ll also see how Thermo Fisher is very much a culture-first organization.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another critical part of our culture consists of our business resource groups (BRGs) and how they foster diversity, equity, and inclusion. We have nine BRGs across a range of affiliations. For example, I was one of the leads for our Latino Hispanic Heritage BRG back in the day and also partnered with our Women\u2019s Empowerment BRG \u2013 in addition to a few others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, our BRGs really help drive community, a greater sense of belonging, and offer our colleagues the resources they need to bring their best selves to work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our BRGs also make a great impact within our local communities. For example, I\u2019m located at the Carlsbad, California, site within San Diego County, and our Women\u2019s Empowerment BRG has partnered with local women\u2019s shelters, nonprofit organizations, Girl Scouts of San Diego County, etc. Our groups are committed to driving change not only internally as a business, but also externally to give back in a meaningful way, which I think is phenomenal. Social responsibility is something I personally looked for when I was researching organizations as both a former intern and a full-time employee. It\u2019s really amazing to see how we\u2019re empowering our colleagues and communities as we serve as an overall catalyst for change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-do-you-look-for-on-a-resume-nbsp\">What do you look for on a resume?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three key components that really stand out to recruiters and managers: 1) Metrics, 2) Leadership Experience, and 3) Personal Brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Metrics help us better understand the tangible contributions that a student is making, whatever that role or experience may be. Whether it\u2019s something that\u2019s more corporate-facing, a retail job, or a volunteer opportunity. For example, if I see a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/how-to-write-resume\">resume<\/a> from someone who\u2019s had corporate experience, it would be great to see how they contributed to the overall business, such as \u2018increased cost savings by X% over a four-month period.\u2019 That is an awesome metric to have. When I first joined the company as an intern, I came in with no previous internships, but I had a strong retail background, so a metric I included on my resume was \u2018interacted with X amount of clients per week\u2019 and \u2018ranked top two in sales.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my favorite stories to share is from when I interviewed a student who had a side hustle. He said, \u2018I don\u2019t really have a lot of corporate applicable experiences. I have my own business, though, but it\u2019s not that big of a deal.\u2019 It wasn\u2019t on his resume, so I asked what it was, and he said, \u2018It\u2019s me and these three other guys, and we started painting houses last summer.\u2019 So I followed up with, \u2018well, how many houses did you paint?\u2019 He said between the three of them, they did about 320 houses. I came back with, \u2018that\u2019s amazing! You need to put that on your resume. Put down the number of houses, how many stakeholders you have invested, and, since it\u2019s a team of four, if you\u2019re supervising the rest of the team, and anything else to that effect to show what you\u2019re doing.\u2019&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re speaking about metrics, students should also include the different relationships they\u2019ve had across their experience. What I mean is, highlight the instrumental relationships that have supported your career growth. For example, you could say how you regularly interface with senior and director-level leaders, faculty, administration, etc. Listing the stakeholders also indicates that you\u2019re comfortable connecting with all different kinds of leadership.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group forage__cta-pattern is-vertical is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-1 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Get hired<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Top companies on Forage are looking to hire students like you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/signup\">Sign up<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In reference to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/skills\/leadership-skills\">leadership experience<\/a>, whether it\u2019s work-related, school-related, or volunteer-related, these types of experiences are unique identifiers that candidates can really leverage in terms of how they are trying to develop themselves. Not only professionally, but also personally. Whatever you\u2019re involved in says something about how you\u2019re looking to grow and your growth factor is what sets you apart from other candidates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, personal brand makes a difference as to how your resume is perceived as well. It\u2019s something I actually coach interns on as part of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/when-to-apply-for-summer-internships\">summer intern<\/a> programming. I know it seems like a small thing, but it makes a big difference, especially in the culture that we\u2019re in of content creators and influencers. It could be as simple as picking a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/resume-for-internship\">resume template<\/a> that\u2019s on point with your personal aesthetic \u2013 at least for the first impression. Also, your resume should be replicated on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/how-use-linkedin\">LinkedIn<\/a>. If a student doesn\u2019t have LinkedIn, sign-up and create a profile. LinkedIn is basically corporate Facebook and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/theforage_\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a> combined. It\u2019s a great way to start building your personal brand, and it\u2019s also something that recruiters and managers will likely check before the interview.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&gt;&gt;MORE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/personal-brand\">What is a Personal Brand and Why Do You Need One?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-do-you-look-for-in-a-job-interview-nbsp\">What do you look for in a job interview?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Someone who has done their research on what our mission and vision looks like is always a great baseline. You\u2019ll be surprised how many candidates come into an interview and ask me, \u2018So what does Thermo Fisher do?\u2019 Candidates really need to do their research on the company they are applying to and really hone in on that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/company-culture\">organization\u2019s culture<\/a>. For Thermo Fisher, our 4i values are key, but also look at what we\u2019re doing in terms of diversity, equity, and inclusion, social justice, social responsibility, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not expecting students to leverage all those initiatives and bring them up during the interview, but for a candidate to reference something a little extra that\u2019s unique and authentic to them is a big differentiator. Someone who\u2019s familiar with our culture demonstrates that they are seriously considering coming on board with us for this opportunity and potentially long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I remember this one candidate for an environmental health and safety internship who had clearly done her research. During our interview, she said, \u2018I looked at last year\u2019s published [Corporate Social Responsibility] CSR report, and I saw that you\u2019re driving zero emissions and you also have a lot of related philanthropic efforts. Also, you have 100% compliance with [the Occupational Safety and Health Administration] OSHA.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then she said, \u2018so I\u2019m wondering\u2026 how do you think those elements would evolve over time and would I be able to impact those kinds of changes in this role?\u2019 To me, that really demonstrated how passionate she was about the [Environmental health and safety] EHS space and like I mentioned, being part of a culture-first organization, we\u2019re looking for a true next-gen leader who is going to make some kind of positive impact with us \u2013 regardless of what space that is \u2013 versus someone who is just looking for a job.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-can-entry-level-or-internship-applicants-do-in-this-competitive-market-to-set-themselves-apart-nbsp\">What can entry-level or internship applicants do in this competitive market to set themselves apart?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Going back to the idea of showcasing your passion, students should talk about what they\u2019re passionate about during the interview, and their passion should tie back to their personal brand. One factor I consider during the interview is, how clearly is the candidate able to articulate the investment of their time across their experiences? Candidates should be prepared to have a reply like, \u2018I decided to pursue X because I\u2019m looking to do Y going forward.\u2019 That tells me there\u2019s a rhyme or reason to what their resume\u2019s trajectory looks like that leads to an overarching purpose.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that in mind, I know a lot of students are told to diversify their portfolio and get diverse experiences across the board, like swim team or student government \u2013 things like that. Which is good overall, but students should really only get involved in opportunities that are authentic to them versus just \u201cnice-to-have\u201d experiences. If there\u2019s no overall sense of consistency within a student\u2019s resume, it\u2019s not going to be perceived as attractive to that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/hiring-manager-vs-recruiter\">recruiter or hiring manager<\/a>. There needs to be some kind of overarching, transcendent goal that you\u2019re looking to hit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, there\u2019s this perpetual narrative from educators and universities for students to \u201cdo it all\u201d to cover their bases, and a lot of students follow that advice \u2013 it was the same for me since high school and going into college. Having been in the higher education space for 10 years, I know the advisors mean well, but there continues to be this gap between what higher education is preparing students for versus what corporate actually needs. As a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/recruiter\">recruiter<\/a> and strategic consultant to our interns, I actively look to close this gap, and Thermo Fisher also looks to bridge that gap between what students have been taught and what are the practical applications of their accumulated education and experiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&gt;&gt;MORE: <\/strong>Explore a day-in-the-life of working in genetic sciences at Thermo Fisher Scientific with its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/virtual-internships\/prototype\/w2wr6WyCDEMF569Zp\/Thermo-Fisher-Scientific-Genetic-Sciences-Program\">Genetic Sciences Virtual Experience Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-kind-of-questions-should-these-candidates-ask-in-the-interview-process\">What kind of questions should these candidates ask in the interview process?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to what I mentioned about students doing their research about our culture, they should ask questions about our 4i values and what those look like on a day-to-day basis for the person they are interviewing with \u2013 whether that\u2019s the recruiter or the manager. For instance, \u2018how do you identify with the 4i value system and how are you able to incorporate them in your role?\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some questions that students should specifically ask managers are: \u2018How would you define your personal leadership style?\u2019 and \u2018How would you describe your team dynamic?\u2019 For example, the manager might say they identify as a servant leader, a situational leader, or say that their team prefers direct communication and so on. Essentially, our interns will be with us for three months, so it\u2019s super important for them to determine if both their values and personality style are complementary to that of the leader they\u2019ll be partnering with and the greater team.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, during the interview, I\u2019ll mention that I was a previous intern with the organization \u2013 twice, actually \u2013 and I\u2019ll bring that up to invite students to ask me questions like, \u2018you were an intern? What was that experience like? Is it still the same? How has it changed?\u2019 So whether it\u2019s a recruiter, a manager, one of the manager\u2019s colleagues, or whoever is in that interview, if someone offers up information that is unique to their experience with the company, students need to lean into that. It will help them better determine if they want to have a similar experience or if that experience is not attractive to them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-types-of-interview-questions-should-candidates-prepare-for\">What types of interview questions should candidates prepare for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our interviews are conversational, but they are also more targeted toward <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/interview-questions\/behavioral-interview-questions\">behavioral questions<\/a>. The behavioral questions might be across work experiences or experiences affiliated with what that student is involved in at their university or even volunteer work. The first thing I ask candidates is, \u2018why this opportunity with Thermo Fisher as opposed to another life sciences company?\u2019 How they answer that question lets me know that they\u2019ve benchmarked us across other companies in the industry and identified something unique that draws them to working with us specifically.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the candidate doesn\u2019t have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/simulations?careers=life%2520sciences\">life sciences<\/a> experience, then I\u2019ll ask, \u2018why get into the life sciences industry as opposed to something else?\u2019 For example, I was hiring for a digital advertising internship, and I asked that question to a student who had a degree in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/careers\/marketing-career-path\">marketing<\/a>. She was able to articulate why she wanted to pivot into life sciences, but some students might say, \u2018I just want to explore something different.\u2019 That statement pretty much lets me know that they\u2019re not particularly committed to the opportunity, and the interview tends to go fairly poor after that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, I\u2019ll ask candidates if they are familiar with our 4i value system. Some will be able to list them but, if they don\u2019t know, I tell them what they are and ask, \u2018based on the different experiences articulated on your resume, I\u2019d really love to hear which of the 4i values you would identify as your key strength as a leader and why?\u2019 Once they answer that, I\u2019ll say, \u2018on the flip side of that question, which one would you identify as your greatest opportunity for growth?\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We certainly don\u2019t expect students, not even our colleagues, to be a jack of all trades and great at all of them from the get-go. It\u2019s more about having that self-awareness to know what you excel in and where you can develop.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-advice-would-you-give-to-students-and-entry-level-applicants-who-have-already-applied-or-want-to-apply-for-roles-with-thermo-fisher-scientific\">What advice would you give to students and entry-level applicants who have already applied or want to apply for roles with Thermo Fisher Scientific?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>My mantra to students and one of my life mantras is \u2018fortune favors the bold.\u2019 If you\u2019ve already applied and for whatever reason you haven\u2019t heard back \u2013 maybe it\u2019s been a handful of days or a week \u2013 here\u2019s where that LinkedIn account comes in handy. Every recruiter is going to be on LinkedIn. Type in keywords like \u2018recruiter, Thermo Fisher Scientific\u2019 and send connect requests. On my profile, I list which functions I support so candidates will know if the role they applied to aligns with me or another recruiter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, send that recruiter a message like, \u2018hi X, my name is X, and I recently applied to X (always list the title and the job code because each opportunity is unique and tied to a specific recruiter). I think I\u2019m a really great fit because of X, Y, and Z. Hope to hear from you and thank you for your time.\u2019 List two or three quick bullets as to why you\u2019re a fit \u2013 just make sure the message is short and sweet \u2013 and if you want to attach your resume, that\u2019s even better. Last year, I had this happen seven times, and I actually hired all seven. Essentially, this type of engagement tells me that the student is super interested in working with us, confident in their abilities, and comfortable reaching out when they need or want help which makes for a great intern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&gt;&gt;MORE:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/how-reach-out-recruiter-linkedin\">How to Find and Reach Out to Recruiters on LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-you-have-any-tips-for-soon-to-be-college-grads-on-navigating-the-start-of-their-career\">Do you have any tips for soon-to-be college grads on navigating the start of their career?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Career mapping is something I started during my doctoral program and something I continue to do as I progress with Thermo Fisher. I also speak about this formally with our interns during their summer with us. I challenge them to ask themselves questions like, \u2018what\u2019s the ultimate role that I would want?\u2019 Whether that\u2019s a manager role, director, [vice president] VP or C-suite, think about that role you want to hit and then work backwards from that position so you can visualize your next step. Also, in addition to considering the tangible markers of the roles along the way, think about the leadership attributes that will get you there. For instance, you can have someone who\u2019s great on paper and great in their role, but they have yet to hone their personal development and leadership skills in the position they\u2019re currently in. The latter is what leadership considers when they are looking to promote someone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the company, we have what\u2019s called Thermo Fisher University. It\u2019s a platform that enables our colleagues to have the agency to drive their career development and one of the really innovative aspects about Thermo Fisher University is what we call \u2018stretch assignments.\u2019 Stretch assignments are for those colleagues who are looking to either evolve in their current role or maybe even try another position that\u2019s outside their function. For example, we recently had someone who is part of our graphic design team who wanted a stretch assignment in talent acquisition, so they ended up helping the team and based on their experience, they discovered a passion for merging their graphic design skills with talent-related initiatives and are considering moving into Employer Brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, as you\u2019re doing your career mapping and thinking about your ideal role, make sure to allow for some flexibility \u2013 I initially carved out three different routes to get to where I want to be. After my first year with the company and gaining more familiarity with how corporate structure operates, I realized that one of my routes was no longer an option and that I needed to modify one of the others. Regardless, having an initial plan and vision brings clarity, and lived experience helps you fine-tune your mapping process. Overall, I would say make a plan but keep yourself open to new opportunities.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-is-thermo-fisher-scientific-different-from-other-companies-in-the-same-space-nbsp\">How is Thermo Fisher Scientific different from other companies in the same space?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most significant way Thermo Fisher stands out to me and the talent we bring on board is our culture-first mentality and how we shape community and belonging. You\u2019re able to feel like you\u2019re living a life that is contributing back to something meaningful. For us to continue to drive innovation and be a world leader in our industry, it really is essential to create a culture-first experience and make sure that our colleagues are invested in our mission and vision.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, we ensure that we\u2019re tapping into our talent regularly. Similar to the stretch assignments I mentioned, Thermo Fisher wants to educate our colleagues on how to enrich their careers with us and empower individuals to have autonomy over their trajectory and own their career growth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, Lisa Britt, recently visited the Carlsbad, California, site for a town hall and spoke to the concept of career development versus role enrichment. Sometimes people are looking to develop their career \u2013 moving from one role to the next \u2013 while others are looking for role enrichment, which is more about how to evolve in your current position. However you\u2019re looking to grow, Thermo Fisher supports it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason why I\u2019ve been a two-time intern and now going on five years with the talent acquisition team is because I\u2019m able to capitalize on both personal and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theforage.com\/blog\/basics\/what-is-professional-development\">professional development<\/a> that\u2019s supported by the company and also leverage what\u2019s unique and authentic to me \u2013 it\u2019s a symbiotic, win-win relationship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-it-like-to-work-for-thermo-fisher-scientific\">What is it like to work for Thermo Fisher Scientific?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Collaborating with Thermo Fisher is to partner with a company in which you can enjoy a deep sense of meaning and purpose. I think it\u2019s critical to consistently experience meaningful work because it really does shape a person\u2019s idea of who they are in this life. We all tell ourselves stories about ourselves, right? Whether they\u2019re for better or for worse, whether they\u2019re positive or negative. I\u2019m a big believer in self-fulfilling prophecy and, as such, I want to make sure that what I\u2019m contributing to on the day-to-day ultimately shapes me into the best version of myself, and that\u2019s what I get to enjoy in my role partnering with Thermo Fisher.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So when you think about Thermo Fisher, think about the story you want to tell and if you decide to join our team, get ready to live it!
