Angela Roberts
I have spent the last three decades on both sides of the hiring table in clinical research, and I built this coaching space because I could no longer watch good people get lost in a broken system.
As Co-Founder and Managing Partner at craresources, my team places experienced CRAs, Field Monitors, Site Managers, and Clinical Ops Leadership with Pharmaceutical, Biotech, Medical Device, and CRO clients. That means I see what hiring managers are actually looking for in today's market, what makes a resume get pulled out of the stack rather than buried, and what the market is rewarding right now (which has changed dramatically, even compared to two years ago).
Here is what I know to be true: today's clinical research job market has become brutal. AI-generated ghost candidates. Falsified credentials. Mid-career professionals with 10, 15, and 20 years of real, hard-won expertise are sending 200 applications into the void with zero feedback. If that is where you are right now, you are not imagining it, and it is not because you have lost your edge.
If you are pivoting (a CRA moving into in-house monitoring or PM, a functional expert breaking into CRO leadership, a Clinical Operations Leader exploring consulting, etc.), if you are newly out of work and have not conducted a job-search in a decade, or if you are stalled and cannot figure out where the leak is in your search, I can help. I coach across eight areas of the job search: clarity, personal brand and story, networking, applications and targeting, interview readiness, skills and marketability, mindset and resilience, and life and logistics fit.
My background: I had a decade at IBM leading global transformation programs spanning 17,000+ team members as one of four Senior Transformation Executives before I left in 2008 to build craresources. I am PMP certified, LEAN and Six Sigma certified, and I have contributed thought leadership for ACRP, DIA, Applied Clinical Trials, CenterWatch, Xtalks, and others.
My promise to you: I make high-quality clinical research professionals hard to ignore. I help you translate your experience from fact into proof, build a LinkedIn presence that actually gets found, fine-tune your perfect role and team, become a stronger interviewer, and negotiate the compensation you have earned.
If you are ready to show up for yourself, I am ready to show up for you.
