Ashfield Healthcare Communications Opens Virtual Career Advice Clinics
Ask Career Experts Panel to provide career advice to members of the wider healthcare communications community
28th March, 2017 - Ashfield Healthcare Communications, a leading global healthcare communications agency, part of UDG Healthcare, announces the external launch of its Ask Career Experts (ACE) Panel. This initiative, previously only available as an internal service for Ashfield employees, is a series of confidential, virtual career advice clinics for the wider healthcare communications community.
The career clinics are aimed at individuals already working in healthcare communications but looking to discover more about the different career paths open to them as they progress within the industry. Participants will have access to a panel of our experts, either via telephone or Skype, ready to answer questions, provide hints and tips, or advice on pros and cons about the different career options available. Sessions will last 25 minutes and run from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm GMT, on a first-come-first-served basis.
Viv Adshead, President of Ashfield Healthcare Communications, said: “The Ashfield ACE Panel has already been a huge success internally, so we’re proud to open it up to a wider audience. At Ashfield Healthcare Communications we believe that there’s a difference between having a job and having an engaging and rewarding career. We’re more than happy to lend our time and advice to those wanting to progress in the industry. Our experts will answer any questions participants may have – irrespective of whether they work at Ashfield Healthcare Communications or elsewhere in the healthcare sector. This is about utilising our position in the industry to help people shape their careers by making initiatives like the Ashfield ACE Panel available to everyone.”
