kriger = espoirbridge

hey you guys,
there is a supposed company in san diego called clinqua clinical trials. when you call, the "manager" tells you that he has positions for those signed up for the certificate. however, i called BBB and this "huge" company is not listed, neither is kriger or espoirbridge. Also, i knew it was fishy because i called up random pharm companies and none of them recognize this certificate. i really dont know what to do myself, because 1500 is alot for someone who does not work.

I am not the type to take the time to post anything anywhere, but I find this important if not amusing.  I recently came across EB while looking for other opportunities within industry.  After sending my CV to what seemed like a legitimate recruitment agency, my email box has started to fill with the same spam as mentioned above including the contact from Clinqua even the same HR rep.  Something did not smell right, so I did some looking and my next email is going to be to a friend of mine in the San Diego Attorney General?s office.  Not that much can be done, but maybe a call to the "HR Manager" will make this operation worry a little.     A few points of interest for the sake of helping others:*For what it is worth, I am a hiring manager within industry, I am certified CCRA, and I have some years of experience.  The first email from EB implied that I needed experience, certification, and more education (I have an MS/MBA).  First Flag  *I have outsourced to CROs for clinical studies; however, I have never heard of Clinqua until now.  After looking around on the internet, I cannot say for sure if the name Clinqua is a real CRO that somehow was drug into this, but it would seem that I would have heard of them before as my business address is XXXX La Jolla Village drive.  -Their office building should be down the street from mine.  Funny, I have never heard of a vendor that I should be going to lunch with.  Shame on their BD staff.  *To answer a few questions I have seen, yes, you can get hired as a CRA without a certification (I have done it).  It is not as easy, but I would hire an experienced CRA with a good resume over a less experienced CRA with all the degrees and certifications out there (experience = job).  The employer should agree to pay for any certification or at least assist with paying for it.  Look to ACRA and SOCRA for resources.  Other sources are out there, but do get hooked into being a victim.  Best of Luck

First, I got an email from Espoirbridge asking to confirm email. Next,I got an email from a supposed recruiter Amanda Bale from Clinqua Clinical Trials, Inc. After a few minutes,I got another email from Kriger offering training at a discounted price. I spoke to Amanda Bale she said I was the perfect candidate for the study except that the company needed CRA training which would be partly paid by the company.I asked her for the no of the training company and she gave me a no and asked me to speak to Angela or Julie.If a company is interested in you they provide the training. Also,when I asked her the location of the employment she said I'd be working from a home office. I spoke with Angela and she said that the discount price was 900 and I might have to pay 450 USD. All this info was suspicious and so I did the reverse look up on the address of the company,4370 La Jolla Village DriveSan Diego, 92122-1249; and it turned up 100 people, one of which was Bruce Kriger. I also did reverse lookup on the no of the company and guess what, it is a landline in Rancho Bernardo, California not Sandiego as the email claimed. So this whole thing is a scam. I looked up the better business bureau of San Diego and Clinqua is not registered. I was lucky enough not to pay a cent to these people and I hope that other people will run into this forum and not fall into their TRAP.
