Why we built Whodini
Every search asks you to become a specialist.
The knowledge gap is real. A new role can demand fluency in a different therapeutic area, drug modality, development stage, or scientific discipline. No recruiter can know it all.
Keywords leave the hardest part unexplained.
A pipeline code or an unfamiliar employer can hide relevant experience. Generic recruiting tools can find the words without explaining the science behind them.
The workload leaves little room for research.
Talent acquisition teams juggle open roles, large applicant pools, and urgent deadlines. Rebuilding the pharma context for every search takes time they don’t have.
The stakes reach beyond filling a role.
Drug development depends on specialized expertise and significant investment, so hiring decisions shape the teams moving that work forward.
A problem we knew firsthand
We saw the gap from the recruiter’s side.
Whodini started with a problem that pharma recruiters know well. Our team brings deep pharma recruiting experience, anchored by 25 years in executive search from one of our founders, spanning emerging biotechs and large pharmaceutical companies.
Across those searches, the same pattern kept returning: meaningful experience was buried in drug names that changed from stage to stage, company names that changed after acquisitions, and scientific terms that recruiting tools never explained.
To close that gap, the recruiter teamed up with an experienced product and engineering team to build the software the work called for.
What that experience led us to build
Pharma knowledge, within reach.
Whodini connects drug and company intelligence with the profiles, questions, and searches in front of you. It helps recruiters prepare a search, find the companies and assets worth investigating, and understand the context behind a candidate’s experience.
Use it in the web application, or bring the same insights into LinkedIn and other websites with the browser extension. Keep the people, companies, and drugs for each search together in Projects as it develops.
We’d love for you to try Whodini.
