I don't think it's necessary. I know people who have it but haven't seen a difference in their careers with it. I'd rather focus on learning leadership skills. Learning from experience will get you further than a certification.

I don’t have a CCRP certification and for most research jobs it’s not required however some jobs have a preference . The jobs that prefer it may pay for you to get it while you work for them . You can get away with highlighting other important areas , like the years of experience you have or the leadership positions you have obtained in your current role .

ACRP certified and yes definitely helped land my current job

Hey everyone! I’m interviewing for an HR Generalist role at a Fintech company, this will be their first HR hire and will be reporting to the CFO.

Hi Fishes, Y.O.E 7.5+ years. Tata Consultancy TCS is offering 25LPA including variable pay and everything. So just 15% increment on my current salary since they mentioned I am leaving my current organization within 1 year.

They mentioned 8-12% is VP plus 80k from that salary is paid at the end of each year. Is it a good enough salary for 7.5+ yoe candidate. Also any heads up for the things I should look out for will be really helpful.

Additional Posts in Clinical Research

I’m looking to transition from an academic medical center to pharma or a biotech. I have about 8 years of clinical research experience overall — 7 years combined as a CRC (CRC I, CRC II, and senior CRC) and 1 year as a PM. I’m also recently ACRP-CP certified.

I’ve worked with many different industry-sponsors and CROs throughout the years, but many jobs I am applying to require experience at a biotech/CRO/pharma company. Would really appreciate any advice or referrals. Thanks in advance!
