Would anyone who has been as TAS recommend moving to an ARM position?

Tough call…on one hand it gives you different experience and looks good on a resume. On the other hand, they are probably next to go assuming this is a CV position.

They have been or are being cross trained for other brands. Seems to be a good move.

I asked someone that a while back- have some background and was told they’d never hire a TAS…crazy

I'm not sure going for ARM openings is the best career move. When Novartis restructures again, and they will, I feel this will be the first position cut. Hearing that lots of displaced ABLs along with select TAS are going for these openings. I could see a highly proficient TAS with support from ABL and RD landing an ARM role.

There really isn’t anywhere that’s “safe” anymore. It seems at least once or twice a year certain teams are downsized or eliminated for no rhyme or reason. I know several TAS’s that have become ARM’s. There is hope

Yet they have many times.

ARMs and reimbursement in general would be a great move from sales. And a great career move. One of the very few areas in pharma that is seeing growth across the industry.
