@dansfera: Considering a career in clinical research? There’s a widespread obsession with landing a CRA role, but this take suggests looking in the opposite direction. Instead of chasing the big CROs right away, the real secret to becoming an industry powerhouse is starting at a smaller, lesser-known clinical trial site. It turns out that being a generalist at a smaller site offers a level of hands-on experience and versatility that you simply can't get when you're just a specialized cog in the machine at a massive academic medical center. Sometimes the best career move is to skip the corporate ladder climb and master the craft from the ground up. #clinicalresearch #careertips #clinicaltrials #CRA #medicalcareers
