hey guys Serg here back with another episode I'm just gonna go ahead and get
right into it the title of this episode is why you should change jobs every two
years especially in the clinical trials industry so why you should job hop every
two years you know I've kind of touched on this subject before and I've brought
about themes such as mobility is better than loyalty especially in the clinical
trials industry and I've got my friend Forbes a lot of you guys may have heard
of Forbes you know Forbes magazine Forbes com you may have heard about them
to back up not just in clinical trials but every industry and I'm gonna show
you they got figures for the average job market but we know when clinical
research and clinical trials that it is an even better job market than your
average job market just because of the demand of certain positions that once
you get that experience you really could be taking your salary to the next level
so I'm gonna go ahead and talk about it in with regards to this article so you
know it says the average job hopper the average person that changes their job
will get and this is by legal technology solutions I don't know much about that
company I don't even know why I cited them but they say that the average
person will get at least in 8 to 10 percent pay increase in the average
market and on the higher end they'll get a 20% pay increase
well that's pretty good for the average market but we're in the clinical trials
industry and I know from personal experience myself when I change jobs
I got a 50% pay increase almost 50% okay I was like 40-something 40 something
percent almost 50% pay increase so those numbers are low and I know other people
too who I've gotten way higher pay increases than that way higher so this
is not this is citing 20% as the high-end boat so we know we've gotten
way than that and then they come down here
later on and say sticking with the same employer for more than two years cost
the employee 50% or higher in their lifetime wages so was gonna cost you at
least 50% of your accrued of your accrued money by sticking with employers
longer than two years so let me just put that in perspective
everyone knows the secret is out you have got to change jobs
I say max two years but definitely max three years you have got to change jobs
and this is the nature of not just clinical trials but the nature of the
job market in general but especially in clinical trials it is just the nature of
it you have got to change jobs until you get to where you want to get to you've
got to change jobs to get to project management you've got to change jobs
when you're CRA and there's actual other hidden benefits to changing jobs while
you're CRA we've went into that before but that's not really what this video is
about but you have got to change job in every two years to make the most money
if that's what you're interested in now a lot of people are hesitant to change
jobs but I'm gonna go ahead and state some facts for you so your salary the
salary that they're paying you they're making a lot more money off of you with
so they're probably charging the client twice your salary or more for the work
that you do so by the time of year hits they've
already made the money off of you and a lot of these companies invest so much
into training you that's so that they can build the client or so that they can
make so much more money off of you the only reason you're being hired is so
that they can make money off of you they're not hiring you to lose money so
keep that in perspective that from a business perspective you've already paid
yourself off quota quote-unquote to the company by two years way sooner but
definitely by two years another thing that you got to keep in mind is nobody
cares nobody cares about your success as much as you do
so the only person that cares about how much money you make is you outside of
maybe your mom or your dad close family members the only person
that cares about how much money you make is you so you've got to keep that in
perspective the only person that cares about your career growth is you now your
manager might care because they have some metrics to meet or their manager is
on them about making sure that you are trained up or whatever but they don't
really care as much as you do they're only there to check the boxes your
manager does not really care that much about your career growth now they may
care a little bit more as they get to know you but they're not believe me
they're not gonna cry when you leave there's somebody there to replace you
there's always somebody there that's how these companies are built that's why I
have training departments that's why they have HR so they can easily replace
you when they need to so don't don't think that you know you're doing your
company a huge disservice by quitting you're not there built so that someone
else can come in and take over the job and also you get the disrespect toilet
loyalty companies are not rewarding you for being loyal so you've got to play
the game you've got to play the game you've got to change companies at least
every two years especially when you're trying to get to where you want to go
you've got to play the game if they want if companies wanted to change it they
could just all they would have to do is pay people more that stay there longer
so they say after two years you get a much bigger pay increase instead of
having someone who's brand new come to your come in come in to your your job
getting paid more than you do when they don't even really know how to do the job
when you've been there for let's say two years that new person that comes in
they're making more money than you likely and they don't know how to do the
job yet like they may they may be more experienced or something but they don't
know how you work the systems they don't know how to work basically the systems I
mean cuz this is not just a you know clinical based video but I was gonna say
CTMS you know ecrf whatever whatever the systems are that
you're using so just want to let you guys know about that and keep that in
mind that there are numbers here Forbes has numbers
and you can look at some of the other ones out there too you guys know this by
now you have got to change jobs to make the most money now a lot of people are
