A Coffee with CompBio

Behind the "We'll Be in Touch" Emails: ArkeaBio's Lauren and Kaye on How to Get Hired in Bioinformatics

What does it really take to land a bioinformatics role? In this episode, we sit down with Lauren Fitch, the Head of Computational Biology at ArkeaBio and Kaye Guerard-Hatziioannou, HR Business Partner at ArkeaBio, to break down how a Bioinformatics Software Engineer position actually gets filled — from resume screening to interview rounds, and the things hiring managers wish candidates knew. Whether you're early-career or mid-career, this one's full of practical, behind-the-scenes advice you won't find in a job description.
