Advanced Clinical Services

Finished a contract here a couple months ago…
Very nice people, but don’t hear from them much. The pay is ok, but I guess that is what the client pays… personally I think Advanced takes a lot, but if you agree to the rate then it is what it is.
And ‘full benefits’…that doesn’t include any sick or holidays. Just medical, which is great but I don’t know if I’d call it ‘full’.
Start next week at a new company with a different staffing agency, the same pay With vacation and holiday pay. Much better.

Advanced Clinical is a really active recruiting agency and they have always been able to answer questions and give me advice when I applied for jobs. They sent me on a few interviews and they have been a great partner in my career. The people that I worked with 2 year ago when I first moved here are still with the company — if that doesn’t tell a lot about this agency, I don’t know what does.
Although they haven’t placed me before, I am confident that we will have a great working relationship if they do in the future. Even when I was placed with a competing agency earlier this year, they continued to call and check in (not just to make their quotas) but because they wanted to check that I was in the right opportunity — very professional.

Since I’ve graduated from college, I’ve been working in the field of clinical data management. After 5 years at my first job, I decided it was time for a change, and started looking for a new position. I posted my resume on craigslist,
, hotjobs, biospace and medzilla.
I could not believe how many recruiters have contacted me. I must have spoken with at least 50. Possibly more. Most of them promised me great opportunities, and that was the last I heard of them. Actually, there were only a couple of people who set up interviews for me. And my hands-​down favorite one of those was Sarah Seiffer (née Buergey), of Advanced Clinical. I hate to sound cheesy but she made me feel like she actually cared about getting me interviews. I felt comfortable talking to her, and if you’ve dealt with recruiters, you’ll know how rare that is.
Now, as luck would have it, the job I ended up getting was not through a recruiter. I was looking up what my former co-​workers were up to on LinkedIn, and applied to one of the companies I saw. And they hired me — which I am overjoyed about, I love my current job.
I’m sure, however, that if I didn’t find this opportunity, Sarah would have been the one to find me one.
