I also called by e-mail and phone both EspoirBridge and Cereprotec and I got no answer back in one week!I am really suprised that I did not any job offer for sure (just a few interviews, some just prescreenings). If there are so many clinical jobs and there is "lack of professionals" (as Espoir Bridge claims), how comes I applied to 200 jobs and got only wasted time? This is frustrating and revolting.

I have an email stating that this company Cereprotec is in Chicago, but I do believe that 613/686 5745 is a Canadian telephone number.  Can you tell me if this is a legitimate company and where they are located.

"I have completed the Kriger Course. I do not recommend it. Although there are tons of information, the content was disorganized. Lots of grammar and spelling mistakes made it hard to understand the point at times. There was no way to print out online content (for reading whenever you feel like), many employers do not recognize the projects you do, and finally, you do not get feedback to the assignments you send in. If you do have a question, it takes a couple of days for a reply, and the replies i received were usually one-word answers"http://www.indeed.com/forum/job/clinical-rese ... 784100?myst=200

It's very clear that EspoirBridge is a SCAM. ?The scam starts with a phony job posting for a clinical research position.  Once the scam artists receive your resume, you are then immediately being solicited to sign up for an incredibly expensive "training and certification program" in clinical research (with the implication that a well-paid job is waiting for you).  This so-called certification program is not recognized anywhere within the clinical research industry and is completely worthless.  The KRC International website claims to have US business offices in many states, including in Seattle, WA.  In the US, in order for any corporate entity to do business in a state, each state requires a registration process, and such registration information is a matter of public record.  The State of Washington is no exception in that regard.  Neither Krieger International, nor Kriger Research Center Inc., nor KRC Inc. have any sort of registration with the State of Washington. Furthermore, EspoirBridge, Kriger and Cereprotec websites have all been registered in less than two years by the same administrator. In other words, the so-called HR recruiter, the so-called professional certification provider, and the so-called biotech company where research is taking place and where your "future job" is waiting for you, are all concoctions from the same scam artists' imagination.  The worst part of these scams, aside from costing job seekers potentially thousands of dollars they can ill-afford to spend, is wasting job seekers' time while preying on their desire for a well-paying job and vulnerable emotional state.

I will agree with all of the above comments. This is definitely a scam, which should be reported. About 10 months back I was also contacted by a so called recruiter who said that my qualifications match with most of the jobs they have, the only thing lacking was a certification in ICH-GCP Guidelines. The agency sent another email that based on my qualification I could get a partial scholarship for this online course. This person also said that once I am done with this 'so called CRA/CRC Professional Development program' I will be offered a job at some affiliated CRO.I decided to go ahead and it has been
nearly six months and I have not heard from this company. The institute I was referred for training was the 'Clinical Research Training Institute'.All my efforts to contact the recruiter both by phone and via email have gone invain. This is a big scam so be aware. These recruiters and these intitutes whether Krieger or the CRTI are affiliated and they are there to fool people,make money and the surprising thing is that they get away with these scams. Something has to be done to stop these people in making fools of gullable individuals desperate to get jobs.

D. Clements, were you refered to them by EspoirBridge?
