Hmmmm.  I received an email for a CRA position today from the following company:
ClinQua Clinical Trials Inc.
4370 La Jolla Village Drive
San Diego, 92122-1249
Tel.  (858) 605-1793
www.clinqua.com
a.bale @ clinqua.com
USA
Didn't "bite" because the vagueness of the job description set off alarm bells, so did a search on better business bureau website and a few other places and this company did not show up anywhere.  Another scam??  Has anyone received something similar from this, "company"?

The BBB has a rating of "F" for this company! That's all I needed to see!!!!!

not specifically with EspoirBridge, but with another recruitment company (and not for a clinical research position). They promised to contact me as soon as they get my references (mentioned: 1 day after) but they did not do so in almost one month. Also, they lied, on one hand they confirmed they got my references but later they just denied that, even if I have proof they really received it. Probably to cover up their incompetence. Anyway, I have supporting proofs that I did everything right.Since this is unprofessional I requested they remove all my data and never call me again. Anyway, the last message from them (even if I specifically asked them not to call me again) was insulting: "short temper","lack of understanding" and "offence" (they only thing I said was that this situation proved no coordination and proper managemanent of papers.I mentioned that I don't want them to call me again, I want that they remove all my data and that any inconveniences caused by them in the future will be legally handled.To sum up, it is shocking how rude and unprofessional these people are, even if they make money from people like you. They show not respect but not even elementary education, poor manners and disgusting behaviour and therefore I decided to avoid such questionable individuals in the future.

They just keep calling me to register, even if I already completed their course last year. Until now, they called me to register more than 10 times and even if I told then I already completed the course, they keep e-mailing me. This is stupid.

mr kriger is threating people again

Contact you local PD or Federal Bureau of Investigation, or in Canada, the RCMP. What I think is happening here is as follows: EspoirBridge (and maybe others) advertise high paying clinical research associate jobs for companies such as Cereprotec, Pharmalef Developments (and maybe others). These companies have been advertising jobs since last year. When you apply to these jobs, EspoirBridge gets you excited first advertising "no experience needed" and "entry level", but then they back track and tell you need the KRIGER CRA course. And that's how they make their money.

Why do they do it? imagine, if only 300-400 people apply for the job posting (but these jobs are advertised world-wide, so many more will), and let's say only 50% take the course, that's over $200,000 profit. Do this a couple times a year, and you're a millionaire.

THIS IS DEFINATELY SOUNDS LIKE A FRAUD.
