Due to the 1 guy looking for a contact at RTI and the general unemployed thread, I figured making this thread could be worthwhile. LinkedIn, TWW style.

If you are looking for a job and in need of contacts some place, then make your requests here. In turn, make sure to post a place or two that you could offer a good contact. Of course, please email/talk/meet and get to know the other person before you go passing their name along.


I'm looking for a good contact at Red Hat or Cisco - in finance, if possible.

For supply chain folks, I can offer a good contact at Carquest. For experienced engineers, I have a few contacts at HTC.

if you have any onsite monitoring experience, in-house monitoring experience, and/or management experience in the clinical research industry, my company is hiring. PM me for details.

we also have openings in other departments (research operation assistants, data operation leaders, stats programming, clinical programming, biostats, project management, and data processing) so let me know what you are interested in, have experience in, and I can check our database.

basically - we are hiring like cray cray right now.

I also have friends in other CROs so if we're not hiring for a particular position, I can reach out to my contacts elsewhere.
