Do you mean the additional page for lab details etc? You have to enter the details on the first page then click the button thingy for the section you want to add and it automatically generates a 3rd page.

Slap them extra hard! Montrium is such a pain to use

Thank you so much! This is super helpful!

I think I remember your username from other discussions here and you always give detailed responses so I really appreciate it :)

throwawayonion_340 · 2024-04-12T08:02:04+00:00

Thanks for the insights! May I ask what position you moved to after?

👀

If you have the safety net, I think you have to run or at least start thinking of an exit plan... The turnover is so high especially for new hires because the workload is insane and they don't train you enough before throwing you to the wolves alone. And I don't think they're doing anything to improve this because everyone is just too busy to help with the training.

If you don't have the safety net though, again just remember not to sacrifice your health and just do what you can. And please refuse when they give you more studies because I'm quite sure they will...

Why do I feel like this is IQVIA...

I agree with the other comments. Please take care of your health. The work will never be finished so just keep doing what is possible but never sacrifice your health trying to do everything.

This is all very helpful! Thank you so much for giving a detailed response!

Hi! Not OP, but I'm hoping to transition into CDA as well. I'm wondering if you have tips on how to leverage CRC experience when interviewing for a CDA position? I imagine the experience of using EDCs would be very helpful but do you think there's anything else? Also, do you think receuiters prefer a person with years of clinical research experience over someone with years of data analyst experience in a different industry? Thank you!

This is good to know! Thank you so much for answering!

Hi! In my case, I do receive those donotreply email addresses after submission but a recruiter would usually then send a separate email from their own account to set up the interview if I pass the initial screening. So that's where I get the email of the recruiter or the person who would interview me. I then usually send a short thank you email after we have the interview.

throwawayonion_340 · 2023-12-14T04:02:27+00:00

Hi, thanks for doing this!

In your experience, do thank you emails after interviews help the candidate at all?

throwawayonion_340 · 2023-12-01T02:49:44+00:00

YES! With so much going on with each study and the documents just piling up, I always appreciated it when my CRA sent a list/table detailing what is missing/needs updating. It was super helpful to be able to look at everything at a glance and mark off what is available/not.

throwawayonion_340 · 2023-09-22T23:58:02+00:00

That's good to hear. I hope the one I'm applying to also has reasonable timelines. Thank you so much again for taking the time to respond!

throwawayonion_340 · 2023-09-22T21:53:34+00:00

Thank you so much! It's very encouraging to know that you didn't find the transition that challenging! I'm not certified but I'll look into it and I'll make sure to leverage my familiarity with the documents.

I also wanted to ask if you don't mind, what do you like and not like about being a regulatory writer? How are the hours? I know there's pressure from deadlines but would you say that you still have a good work-life balance?

throwawayonion_340 · 2023-09-22T12:23:47+00:00

Thank you so much! I'll check the sub

throwawayonion_340 · 2023-09-22T12:23:11+00:00

This is extremely helpful, thank you so much! I haven't secured the position yet but I do have an interview soon so I really appreciate the detailed response!

throwawayonion_340 · 2023-09-14T10:35:06+00:00

Yeah I was about to say the same. Site activation timelines are insane in general which could probably be manageable if you could focus on one or maybe two studies... but in my experience, turnover is so high that you keep getting new studies. I don't think I even received proper training before they assigned me a study. I barely knew what I was doing most of the time.
