Project Specialist Reviews
What is it like working as a Project Specialist?
November 2018
Project Specialist:
I love working here. This is my best boss. The company encourages people to explore their areas of interest and move to other roles with better fit when they come open. Pay is on the nonprofit scale and not like the corporate world. However, the job is much more relaxed as well as rewarding than secular communications agencies.

April 2016
Get ready to be on your toes.
Project Specialist:
The project specialist job at Almac is not what it used to be. They place their new hires within one of the four groups. ( Inventory Management, Security Management, Customer Solutions, and Data Management). One is only responsible for one task within each of the groups instead of many tasks. This makes it very boring for the employee.
Make sure you take in all the training and ask as many questions as possible.
