From Talent Gaps to Workforce Wins: Expert Insights on Life Sciences Hiring

In this episode of Advancing Talent Acquisition, host Michelle Krier sits down with Peter Webster, a veteran talent acquisition and HR technology leader with more than 20 years of experience in life sciences and CDMOs. Peter shares how the industry’s hiring landscape has shifted dramatically with the rise of biotech startups, generational changes, and new expectations around flexibility, purpose, and skills-based hiring. He explores why focusing on quality of hire, not just time to fill, has become a critical measure of success, and how technology, metrics, and candidate experience must all work together.
