These attributes should be showcased in their profile summary, in how they describe their previous lab experience along with their skills and qualifications.
To get started, you're going to want to focus on telling a story about yourself as a clinical research coordinator that covers some key skills such as study planning, participant recruitment screening, computer skills, teamwork, and attention to detail.
It's not enough, however, to just list these skills. Rather, you're going to want to highlight these skills with real-world examples and hard data to support your statements. When deciding on what skills to include, use the job description itself as your guide.
When writing your research summary, we recommend describing research coordinator experience and some key skills and accomplishments.
For example, "Certified clinical research coordinator with eight years of experience in the medical industry. Highly analytical professional with strong critical thinking and research skills, able to work with minimum supervision."
The work experience section should elaborate on specific skills and accomplishments and be supported with hard numbers.
Be sure to start each bullet point with an action verb - such as 'organized,' 'planned,' 'spearheaded,' 'managed,' and 'coordinated.' For example, "Recruited and completed 40% of subjects required to file new drug application with FDA on schedule among supervised sites."
