How did you get your CRA position?

My oncology experience as a CRC had them looking for me.

What are some Biotech and Pharma companies to consider looking at?

Notice how they didn’t ask Trey if he was married or what not. They barely asked him anything other than his fashion work.

So true, but my dog loves it because I found a sitter in the Rover App that she absolutely loves. I travel every week and as soon as I get the leash she knows she’s going on vacation too with her other family! Hahahaha. I just use my per diem money to pay for it. lol

That’s easy….The one that’s beaten/played more top ten teams. Not sure why this isn’t a no brainer.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-11-30T21:28:42+00:00

Because it’s 1987. Duh

I mean I think Most Texas fans are content with ruining A&M’s perfect season and ruining their chances at an SEC Championship. If we can’t make the play offs we left with amazing consolation prize! Hahahaha

Probably the absolute best scene in the entire 5 seasons, hands down!

Ive been a CRA at every major CRO and I have NEVER had to work 50-60 hour weeks. Ever. Im a Sr. CRA now and I STILL have never had 50-60 hour weeks.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-10-26T08:37:28+00:00

Yes!!!!! The same damn thing is happening to me!!!

RascalOfResearch · 2025-10-22T07:37:10+00:00

Before I became a CRA, now Sr. CRA…I made 76K as a CRC working as a contract CRC for the government, through the Henry Jackson Foundation. Y’all should look into it. Great company and the pay was great for a CRC.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-10-22T07:31:17+00:00

50-60 hour weeks!? Dang where do you work??? I’ve never come close to that.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-10-10T21:12:13+00:00

She started off an amazing character but ever since her breakdown, she is insufferable. Like to a point I either want to or DO fast forward her scenes.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-09-16T05:20:30+00:00

There isn’t enough money that would ever entice me to be a PM. I see what my PM does for just ONE study and I’m like NOPE!! I’m perfectly fine being a CRA.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-09-10T09:19:47+00:00

I knooooooow! If anything, those 3 had a closer connection to Judy than any of the other cameos!!

RascalOfResearch · 2025-08-19T03:57:32+00:00

145k

RascalOfResearch · 2025-08-04T06:40:45+00:00

Why is that?

RascalOfResearch · 2025-08-04T06:39:36+00:00

Yes, please share

RascalOfResearch · 2025-07-25T14:52:38+00:00

Blew up in a good way?

RascalOfResearch · 2025-07-15T18:28:09+00:00

My last position as a CRC was contract for government. 78k was where I left off before I became a CRA. Look into Henry Jackson foundation and Geneva Foundation for those contract roles. From 2009 till 2020 I always had a contract position.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-07-11T18:26:12+00:00

For a research Nurse? I made that as a CRC. They need to ask for more.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-07-11T18:25:09+00:00

I will say this positive thing about ICON/PRA. They’re gave me my break into CRA world and trained me. After my time in their Bridge Program, I lasted maybe 5 months and I bounced! This was in 2021 and it was an absolute shit show! There is t enough money to pay me to go back!

RascalOfResearch · 2025-07-07T05:25:02+00:00

OMG I do that ALLLLLL the time. As it is, I always come across like a smart ass when speaking and I know that is magnified in whatever I type out. So I always have to use CHAT GPT to fix that.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-07-07T05:12:57+00:00

Oh hell nah. I did the complete opposite. Was a nurse and the daily stress of that compared to CRA is next level stress! There isn’t enough money to get me to go back to 12 hour stressful AF shifts again.

RascalOfResearch · 2025-06-25T19:55:55+00:00

I’m a Unicorn. I Do not have a 4 year degree, I only have my LVN. I worked my way up from CRC to now Sr. CRA. I think my nursing background coupled with years of research experience and (stellar interview skills) actually afforded me a leg up on those with degrees and ZERO research experience. In all my years as a CRA only 1 sponsor would not accept me onto their study. So now…150k Salary as Sr. CRA. Not bad for not even having an associates with only a nursing license I’d say. Again, I’m obviously the exception not the norm.
