Our History

Palmer & Young, Inc. was created from feedback Rebecca Palmer received from thousands of Pharmaceutical/Biotech reps and managers who stated there was a large gap in the recruiting industry. Palmer & Young, Inc. gave Pharmaceutical/Biotech reps and managers an edge because Rebecca had “walked the walk and talked the talk,” with experience as a Pharmaceutical sales rep and “carried the bag.”

Applying their feedback Palmer & Young decided to create a new kind of pharmaceutical/biotech recruiting firm. Palmer & Young is a company where our recruiters serve as educators, matchmakers and career strategists to their candidates because of the direct industry experience of "carrying the bag" its founder had acquired. This concept is the critical ingredient that sets us apart from our competitors today.

Our recruiters have surrounded themselves with the very qualities a manager is searching for in their next hire. We individually interview each manager to ensure we understand their needs that will best fit within their district, no matter in what part of the country they reside.

It wasn’t until after Rebecca attended the Franklin Covey Coaching Certification Program in Salt Lake City, UT that she truly realized that marrying the two services of pharmaceutical/biotech recruiting and personal and corporate coaching would be a “match made in heaven.”  

This additional service of Palmer & Young, Inc. offers our candidates and clients the opportunity to enhance themselves personally or professionally in areas that they want to accelerate. Coaching is not therapy! It is an interactive relationship with a certified coach that develops your inherent greatness. It is action oriented that builds momentum and works in the present. Success rates rest solely on the client!

Palmer & Young, Inc. can clearly say that we are passionate about what we do. For those clients and candidates that have experienced our services, loyalty, appreciation and respect stamp the alliance. The positive result is word of mouth. It is our clients and candidates that become our “Customer Evangelists”. We thank them for that!
