This isn't a talent problem.
It's a positioning problem.

When the hiring landscape changes, positioning becomes your advantage. Experience alone doesn't win competitive roles — the way you present that experience does.

"I haven't job searched in 15 years — everything feels different."
LinkedIn, ATS systems, and AI screening changed while you were busy building a strong career. The rules shifted and nobody told you.
"ChatGPT rewrote my resume and now I sound like everyone else."
Generic tools don't understand biopharma nuance or how to position 20 years of rare disease expertise. They flatten what makes you distinct.
"I'm getting applications in but no calls back."
Which usually means something in your positioning isn't landing — and that's fixable.
"A layoff just hit and I need to move fast."
Preparation and positioning matter more than speed. Getting it right the first time is faster than fixing it after 60 days of silence.

Client Outcomes

What happens when
your positioning lands.

"In less than three weeks I had three first-round interviews, two second rounds, and an offer at a company I genuinely wanted. Yaffa doesn't just write documents — she repositions you."
Elise M. — Director, Patient Services Strategy · Rare Disease
★★★★★
"After 18 years at one company, I didn't know how to tell my own story. Yaffa figured it out in 90 minutes. Two months later I was negotiating an offer $40K above what I'd expected."
Joseph K.
VP, Commercial Operations · Specialty Pharma
"I was skeptical — I'm a good writer. But I had no idea how visible my positioning gaps were to a recruiter. Yaffa showed me exactly what was costing me interviews."
Travis R.
Senior Director, Market Access · Gene Therapy
"I've worked with career coaches who had no idea what MSLs actually do. Yaffa knew the questions our hiring committees were asking before I said a word. That's the difference."
Monica T.
Medical Science Liaison · Oncology

Yaffa Grace, MPH — Founder

I've spent 20 years on both sides of the hiring table.

A decade in pharmaceutical sales at GSK. Years running BlueGene Search, a boutique recruiting firm I co-founded for the biotech and biopharma industry. I've written thousands of job descriptions, screened thousands of candidates, and watched genuinely exceptional people lose out to professionals who simply knew how to present their work.

Yaffa Grace & Co exists because that gap is fixable — and because the professionals who've given 20 years to this industry deserve positioning that reflects what they're actually worth.

"The problem is never the experience. It's that the experience is invisible to the people making decisions."
