From the manager -

From the first batch, I liked the candidates who have solid experience in GMP QC labs. There were a couple that only reviewed data or were more in research environments. Really looking for folks who are actively working in QC labs right now.

How many years of overall experience working in lab and in GMP QC lab is required? It's a minimum of 4 years in a GMP laboratory

How many years of experience in method transfer and / or analytical method implementation, method lifecycle management is required? This would be rolled into the minimum 4 years of experience. The critical experience that I am looking for is the 4 years of experience in GMP laboratories. Of particular importance is that the experience is either in a QC Chemistry lab or QC Microbiology lab. For Chemistry, I am looking for folks with experience with HPLC / UPLC with Empower software. For Microbiology, it would be the standard suite of micro testing including Bioburden, endotoxin, conductivity, TOC (some or all).

How many years of experience would make a candidate over qualified? Over 10 years is probably too much for this role.
