During Routine monitoring visits I come across a lot of clinical research coordinators (CRC) that would like to take the leap and become clinical research associates (CRAs). They have been in clinical research for a long time and know the ropes, yet, they are afraid to submit an application. Some have tried and have been rejected; others are just too scared to try.
Then there are life science degree holders, RNs, research nurses and international medical graduates (IMGs) all with strong credentials, but do not know how or where to start with their application for CRA jobs.
Some are rejected because from their resumes; it doesn’t look like that they have any experience. This is a big issue for the candidate because Contract research organizations (CROs) employ individuals with some kind of clinical research experience, and if you don’t convey your expertise in research during interviews then the likelihood of you getting the job starts to diminish.
JP Holdasham’s desire is to share his experiences with others and help hardworking and interested individuals navigate the rewarding but sometimes difficult application process to becoming a CRA. In his new book, “CRA Jobs For Science Degree Holders, RNs and IMGs: - A guide to six figure Clinical research associate income in clinical research monitoring; he provides a “How to guide,” to becoming a CRA, for entry level applicants and experienced CRAs that want to navigate to six figures in income as clinical research associates.
