![REAL Interview Questions I was asked - Clinical Research Coordinator [Epi.1]](/img/n.gif)
I've worked as both a research coordinator and a Clinical Research coordinator. The differences between the two are mostly in the areas and types of studies you will work in/on. RC work more on socio- behavioral, psychology, non treatment studies. Whereas, CRC do more with biotech, pharmaceutical, treatment/interventional clinical trials.
Grind for a a year or 2 as CRC or CRA, and I mean GRIND. Go hard for a project manager position afterwards, you'll have a bump on your salary and be less stressed about travel, as there's basically none.
I CAN NOT EXPLAIN HOW IMPORTANT THIS VIDEO WAS FOR ME. Thank you SO much. Thank you. This video was everything for me. You hit every point and every question I had. I appreciated this video!
I am so happy that I found ur channel! I have been in healthcare for almost 9 years. I have experience working in inpatient Psych as well. I started getting more interested in clinical research after working in Radiation Oncology. I'm thinking about going for the CRC role at my hospital.
Hey! Thanks! As someone who is moving into a research coordinator position in Seattle, your brutal honesty was greatly appreciated.
Thankyou very much , rooting for my self to conquer and be overwhelmed as you felt, wish me luck I’d be cooping up my self to be standardised research coordinator.
Thanks for ur sharing, I'm a new research coordinator since this year in China. The content of ur channel really helps me know more about this occupation.
Hi! Thanks for this video, glad I found your channel! I’ve been working since graduating with a BA in psychology in 2015, primarily in social services/case management. I JUST landed a salaried research coordinator position and…wow, it took a long time and some luck. I think our frontline work has shaped our perspective and benefits when interacting with participants. So valuable! That’s what my interviewer liked about my background. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for this video and it’s so nice to hear someone who came from social work and now going into PhD, since it’s my goal as well! Best of luck on your endeavors!
I also have my BA in psychology, do you mind sharing where I could reach out to for crc positions that will hire with this?
@@mariamarch2105 Hi, I saw this quite late I apologize. If you are in the Los Angeles area, i highly recommend looking into The Lundquist Institute for Biomedical Innovation at Harbor-UCLA in Torrance. A lot of those jobs, which are typically under the "Project Coordinator" title are actually CRC positions. I've noticed that this organization takes chances on people trying to break into the field. I've been in this role for almost a year and it's already opened so many other research coordinator type positions (got 4 interview requests at the 6 month mark). If you aren't in LA, I recommend looking into independent/nonprofit research organizations. Applying to big name places are great, but I find that there are other doors that can get you in quicker. Even if you get a CRC type of position and its in a study that's unrelated, stick with it until you can segue into something closer to psychiatry/psychology. Hope this helps and good luck! Do let me know if you have more questions.
Great insight into the role of being a research coordinator
I am a Social Worker and a Research Coordinator too and I am super excited to find someone with the same background!
Ma'am I am a master degree student of pharmacology .. I am a social worker too.. I want to start my career as Clinical Research Coordinator.. Can u please guide me for this job..
I really liked your story. Thank youuu
I just got offered a job at a research coordinator and was looking for the ins and outs of the job so that you for talking about that!
What this girl is saying does not apply to all research. There are a myriad of fields you can go into and get paid well.
I’m so happy I found your channel. I’m applying for a clinical research role now and it seems to pay well so now I’m skeptical of the duties. Thanks for your transparency!
No problem! Other things to consider is really the cost of living where you are, where's the funding for the posting coming from (private or public), and what kind of agency/company are you working for? Usually private companies tend to pay better than universities or state funded civil positions :) best of luck!
I just started my new research coordinator and it’s been a lot of information for me to take in! Nevertheless, I am excited to partake in this new journey!
Ignore everything this girl is saying; it does not apply to all clinical research.
Thanks for sharing
Hello from Seattle! Thanks so much for your video. It’s so much helpful for the people who are interested clinical research coordinator positions and have no background or knowledge how to get into it. Would it be good idea for a business graduate to apply for clinical research coordinator position if they are interested in the field? Do they need any specialized courses? Or it is entirely impossible?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi Sadaba- from a research nurse, there is an entire aspect of clinical research that is very specifically finance oriented; negotiating with drug companies, making sure that things are invoiced appropriately, helping investigators draft budgets, etc. There are "boots on the ground" coordinators who implement the trials, and there is the equally important group that keeps the wheels turning. Especially in an academic setting, studies are constantly coming to an end, and it is a real skill to keep new studies "in the pipeline" at all times. If you are interested in applying your business training with research, that could be really awesome and lead to a great career path. Where I work, we have entire departments dedicated to doing just that. And there would always be a high demand for that skill set. There is a 5 hour "course" on becoming a CRC on TH-cam that looks very helpful. (disclosure, I haven't watched the entire thing). it is by Dan Sfera. Good Luck!
As someone researching possible career options this sounds like a pretty good career choice if only the pay was better
The pay is actually decent. You can make anywhere from 50K-60K depending on your experience, how big the site is and where you are located.
Thabk you very much! How many months do you think is enough to impress graduate schools ,
Nice! 😇
Hey! Would love to interview you on my podcast!
Can I ask a question.. how social worker WFM during COVID time? consult online? Is that work? :) thank you
Social workers can do telehealth! It's providing therapy and social services online via services like zoom but usually there are specifically created PHI protecting video calling websites. Hope that's helpful!

What’s the average salary of a CRC in your state?
How much do CRCs get payed?
I work as a CRA and i think the first problem of being in research is that you dont need a degree to get in (i only have a college diploma in health admin atm) so the salary is low. But getting this job has made me realize how much research interests me. My colleagues are definitely underpaid which is incredibly sad. I will be getting a degree in SW to increase my salary bc my current wage is not livable
Would anyone be interested in sharing what their salary is as a research coordinator? I've seen ranges from 37k to 75k.
I am a CRC at a university and make around 45-50K and this is my first CRC position.
@leandreaa5454 also a CRC at a university and make 58k.
What about Clinical Research Associate Vs Coordinator (CRA Vs CRC) what one is better to do
CRA is higher than CRC. if u dont have any hands on experience in clinical research industry , then u need to start as CRC to gain some site experience . CRA pays is very stressful cos half of ur time is spent on travlling to different sites
A CRA is a lot more involved than a CRC. CRA's are responsible for auditing sites. So you'll have to travel to these different sites to conduct monitor visits, which could be all over the country. Also, CRA's (typically) need a master's degree.
isaw they made 100k a year wym?
i feel like NYU owes me...
Brutally honest unhappy because of your games that never turned in to anything useful sufficiently insufficient is TH-cam on Apple phone shame and disgrace company
You are the epitome of your generation's ignorance and sense of entitlement. Research is all about data collection. And work is repetitive. Work is work! As far as pay is concerned, CRC's are well compensated for their efforts. They can make anywhere from 50K-60K, depending on experience, how big the site is and which state you're working in. Come on!
I saw your comment the first time! It's difficult to give space to your comment when you start it with a dismissive insult not only about me but my entire generation!
@@hi.yeonni Whatever you need to tell yourself.
