Hear me out, Frost & Sullivan

Another position I covet greatly is that of In Vitro Diagnostics Market Analyst at Frost & Sullivan, a widely respected business research and consulting firm and leader in their industry. As I have mentioned in a previous posting, one should not apply for a position for which they are not qualified. At first glance, my inclination was to bypass this posting altogether but I took a good look at the qualifications and compared them against my skills. As it turns out, Frost & Sullivan hiring manager, I am a better than average fit. Let me explain why:
I have the research capabilities, this is not up for debate. You have my resume and can see for yourself exactly what my experience entails. I know how to analyze a market, I understand competitive research and I have the ability to report on these in a way that conveys expertise and is comprehensive. I am also familiar with aspects of the medical field, having worked on several projects with Allergan and Boston Scientific. I understand the steep learning curve that exists for such analyses and have been able to keep up thus far with no issues. In fact, I would say that my innate desire to learn about the medical field (something that I am truly passionate about) makes this learning process all the more interesting and, therefore, quicker.
I obviously enjoy writing but am also incredibly comfortable speaking in front of large crowds. Communication, in all of its facets, is at the top of my strengths list. I have experience conducting in-depth interviews with physicians, nurses and medical device engineers. I have also spent a great deal of time with patients and have incorporated their feedback and needs into user design, brand development and market analysis. I suppose what I am saying is this ain't my first time at the rodeo.
I also want to address my weaknesses here. Obviously, a resume is going to present a slightly puffed up version of one's self. A good interview will likely uncover some shortcomings of the candidate, but it might not be until after the interviewee is hired that one realizes the candidate didn't quite live up to their resume. I don't intend to blow any steam up anyone's, ahem...

so let me be frank.
A graduate degree in a Life Science I do not have. My graduate degree is in Psychology. I know that in the world of science, the social sciences have always been the redheaded stepchild. Social science is not real science. Social science is a soft science, unlike Biology or Chemistry of Physics which are all hard sciences. This ideology is not lost on students or professors of the social sciences. Most of my professors explained to me the burden of proof that is laid upon the social sciences. We have to work harder to be heard and to be taken seriously. Consequently, the training that I have received has been quite rigorous. Being that social science is rarely black and white, much like human behavior, I have learned how to pick apart quantitative data using sophisticated methods. I have also learned to look at everything with a skeptical eye and to take nothing at face value. Because, unlike the hard sciences, a social scientist cannot take for granted that x will always equal y. Such is the human condition. Now, Frost & Sullivan, I'd love to talk more about what a wonderful addition I'd be to your team!
