Specialized context
Clinical research functions are not interchangeable. ATC evaluates people within the operational and regulatory realities of their work.
For employers
A shortlist with judgment behind it.
The recruiting philosophy
Understanding comes before sourcing.
Every engagement begins with the context behind the job description: why the role exists, where the challenge lives, how success will be measured, and what kind of professional can thrive in the environment.
Thoughtful evaluation
Experience matters, but so do direction, communication, readiness, motivation, and alignment with the actual mandate.
Curated introductions
Clients receive a limited shortlist—typically no more than five professionals—with useful context for each introduction.
Founder involvement
Jermaine Woods remains directly involved in discovery, candidate evaluation, communication, and search support.
Clear market feedback
ATC documents activity, communicates consistently, and shares candid observations when a brief or market condition needs attention.
Beyond one transaction
The goal is a trusted working relationship with employers and professionals—not a high-volume exchange of résumés.
The search process
Structured, focused, and visible.
The exact approach is tailored to the engagement, but the underlying discipline stays consistent.
Search discovery
Define the business need, team context, priorities, constraints, and measures of success.
Engagement alignment
Confirm scope, search terms, communication rhythm, decision makers, and signed agreement.
Targeted search
Map the market and engage professionals through focused research and trusted relationships.
Candidate evaluation
Assess background, direction, communication, readiness, and fit against the agreed brief.
Curated presentation
Introduce a limited group of qualified professionals with structured context—not a résumé dump.
Decision support
Coordinate interviews and communication, support the offer process, and remain engaged after the start.

Employer questions
What to expect.
A clear search relationship begins with clear expectations.
What types of searches does ATC support?
ATC focuses on specialized clinical research and life sciences functions, including clinical operations, pharmacovigilance and drug safety, regulatory affairs, clinical quality, research administration, and site operations. Searches may be regional or national where the specialization requires it.
Does ATC work on contingent or retained searches?
The engagement model is discussed during discovery and documented in a signed agreement before candidate presentation. The right structure depends on the role, urgency, complexity, and level of search partnership required.
How many candidates should we expect?
ATC favors a limited, curated shortlist—typically no more than five qualified professionals—rather than a high-volume stream of résumés.
Will ATC share candidate profiles before an agreement?
No. The talent preview is anonymized and illustrative. Identifiable candidate information is shared only within an active, documented client engagement and with appropriate candidate awareness.
What happens if the market does not match our original brief?
ATC communicates candidly about compensation, location, availability, scope, and other market realities so the search can be adjusted thoughtfully instead of quietly stalling.
