Why

This is a full-time onsite lab automation role at an organ-on-a-chip drug discovery biotech in San Diego. It has no connection to her psychology, mental health, UX, or victim services lanes. She has no wet-lab, biology, or automation experience, and the role probably needs an immediate start, before she graduates in May 2027. Pay is listed (about $71K) and San Diego is her second-choice location, but the day-to-day fit is very poor.

Watch out for

• Wet-lab biotech and lab automation role, unrelated to psychology or mental health
• Likely requires life-science degree and hands-on lab or automation experience she lacks
• Full-time onsite role that probably needs an immediate start, before May 2027
• Aggregator salary is a single figure, so the pay is likely an estimate
• Truncated description

Resume angles

• Excel daily tracking across three locations (attention to detail)
• Research Methods coursework and literature review experience
• Accurate documentation and reporting at Kiddleton and the gallery
