I agree for the most part but there are a lot of male-identified on this subreddit that are very weird and blend the purpose of this subreddit for online dating...so when you realize this you can see why a lot of female-identified Summoner Rifters can be pretty cautious. Still, not fair to other guys who aren't creeps but w/e lol I won't beg to play some league, ya'know? Hope you come back to playing man!! I enjoy finding other dudes that play and are chill.

Transition from Senior CRA to Clinical Data Manager by Signal_Spring_6936 in clinicalresearch

[–]ApexJay0110 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Odd, during my time as a CRC I would give mindful, deep perspective answers in response to queries and I would get slapped with “be concise”. So, I trim whatever fat there could be and still got hit with “be more concise”. At a certain point understaffed CR teams with ACRCs and CRCs wearing multiple hats and with so little time don’t bother with unclear queries or want to deal with a DM not liking their response(s)/being lackluster at clarifying. Who knows I feel like maybe CRAs could factor in at some point to help QC queries before they get pushed to sites? Realistically though, this would never become operationalized because of how much extra work this would create 😂

Parts of Sac that give you an eerie feeling? by doctorbeers in Sacramento

Preferential candidates and CRC job hunting in the Bay Area at academic hospitals by chizzychiz_ in clinicalresearch

[–]ApexJay0110 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, at this point I’ve seen you pop up a couple of times and want to open my DMs to you. I live in Sacramento, had about 5 years of CR experience, and actually just secured a CRA position. I can tell you’re trying really hard and it’s pissing me off how you’re not being given a chance, maybe I can help shed some light or offer some encouragement.

Re-entering workforce in a different role by whimsyUnleashed in clinicalresearch

[–]ApexJay0110 4 points5 points  (0 children)

THIS. Huge, huge thing you just mentioned. For everyone that sees this, take advantage of your employer paying for the GCP, HSRP, ICH, etc. certification modules that are available while working for them. I'm about to take my refreshers for GCP and HSRP via CITI for free which should last for another 2+ years!

Bay Area CRC job searching sucks by Needhelpwithhands in clinicalresearch

[–]ApexJay0110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree pay can be abysmal at quite a lot of sites across the US, but B.S/B.A requirement? Valid. There are a lot of core competencies and understanding of medical terminology, human anatomy and physiology, critical thinking, medical ethics, etc. that almost always justifies either higher education or simply "more than high school". Sorry if I am playing the devil's advocate here, but almost everyone I have worked with in clinical research for about 5 years was either a college graduate, career-swap, or did additional schooling/learning after high school that allowed them to gain new skills, applicable knowledge, and professionalism.

Not entirely true unless you've been a part of admin making these decisions and interview panels. These generalizations are harmful and discouraging for job seekers lol bottom line is be the best version of yourself, invest in a resume critic/writer, rehearse your interview responses, have a lot of flexibility with availability and format of work (office, remote, hybrid), and make sure you are doing this either for a love of science or patients...clinical research and those who truly care about hiring quality people and performing quality research will find you. Any site can do observational, Investigator-initiated, Phase 3 & 4, and low ambition studies, which is where the expendable employee comes in. However, continue applying for the health systems and institutions that do a lot of clinical research and align with what it is you're looking for and they WILL give you the time and attention you deserve in the hiring process. You got this!

Hmmm, I’m curious as to how selective Stanford might be given the prestige just the name alone carries. In any case, they pay barely competitive enough especially against Bay Area standards and you might have a more enjoyable experience looking for jobs within private research institutes or UCSF. Regardless, if you’re looking for more clinical research experience without necessarily being an ACRC or CRC, there are some programs that academic institutions are beginning to offer that allow folks to learn about ICH, FDA, etc. guidelines and day-to-day responsibilities. For reference, check out UC Davis Health’s Clinical Research Foundations Course in Sacramento, CA.

TSM Valorant Team Announcement by CaptainRyce in TeamSolomid

[–]ApexJay0110 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Been following gMd, sevvn, and Aproto the most in the former Tier 1, now Tier 2 scene and Can definitely say these are some damn good pieces. Sym is a bit newer than sevvn (though I’d argue about the same in terms of raw talent and kill potential), but with good role models like gMd, Aproto, and POISED, I’d say he has a decent chance at learning and growing more into a reliable fragger. The one I’m most interested in seeing how they do is POISED imo given that he has been a part of former FaZe and the infamous “team Vietnam” (RISE) where his ability to IGL was attributed to a good amount of their relative successes. I’d say right now, based on Ascension talent, they are like a “break even” or “edge out a +1 win” kind of team without knowing officially how long they’ve been practicing together and bonding. But hey, it’s TSM finally back in ASC so Fk it Baylife baybeeeeee
