I recieved an email from this company stating that they have a job for me. When I call it goes directly to voicemail and I am unable to leave a message. Is this real?

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

I would just like to see what company accepts their certificate? I called countless HR departments to see if this certificate w/KRC would help with acquiring a position within their organization.  I received a resounding I am not familiar with that organization nor their certification.  With that I place the burden of proof on KRC to advise of who has received this certification and landed the illusive job that they continue to post on-line

I got an email from them too. Sounds like a scam, they asked me to call for an intervie, however their mail box is always full.

yes Kim, I am in the same situation. This is how some people make money, by selling hope and untruthful promises. Disgusting. I hope to go back to school soon and to get rid of this kind of people.MAURICE
