Mid-Sized CRO

A mid-sized CRO needed experienced CRA support in a region with limited talent availability. Internal resources were stretched, and onboarding junior CRAs would delay the project.

To stay on schedule, the team sought a fast and flexible clinical research staffing solution that could deliver qualified candidates ready to start with minimal ramp-up.

The problem

"We needed experienced CRA resources in a specific geography during a competitive hiring period. Freelance Clinical responded quickly, delivering CVs within days. Their flexibility and communication made collaboration easy."

— Director of Clinical Operations, Mid-Sized CRO

The team needed experienced CRA support in a specific geography where qualified applicants were limited due to competitive hiring conditions.

The internal team had junior CRAs needing additional training. They required senior resources who could contribute immediately with minimal ramp-up.

The solution

Freelance Clinical responded with agility, delivering experienced CRA candidates within days of finalizing the CDA and TOB. By prioritizing geographic fit and senior-level experience, the team minimized the need for internal training.

This allowed the CRO to activate resources quickly, maintain project momentum, and stay aligned with evolving resourcing needs through consistent communication.
