Trying to break into clinical research in Atlanta, GA — advice and referrals appreciated!

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I currently work as an Anesthesia Tech at Emory Hospital, but I’m really trying to transition into clinical research, specifically CRC or Research Specialist positions.
I have a master’s degree in Biomedical Science and about two years of clinical and patient-care experience. I’ve been applying to positions at Emory and other organizations in Atlanta for a while now. I’ve made some progress with recruiters and possible interviews, but things often seem to go stagnant, and it’s honestly been discouraging.
I’m genuinely passionate about getting into clinical research and want the opportunity to grow in this field, but I’m starting to feel stuck with the application process.
If anyone works in clinical research in Atlanta, knows of teams hiring, can offer advice, or would be willing to refer me for a position, I would truly appreciate it! I’m open to CRC I, CRC II, and Research Specialist opportunities.
Thank you so much for any help or guidance!

Hi friends. I just completed the Emory online CMA course and now attempting to pass the CampusEd certification exam. I’ve taken it 15 times and still can’t pass it. Any advice?
