About Us

’Foster’

(verb) “to encourage or promote the development of something.” 

(adjective) “denotes someone that has a specified family connection through fostering rather than birth.”

Professional [Resume] Visibility

A resume is just a way of making our accomplishments feel seen.

“If I can just secure an interview, I just know they’ll hire me.” We’ve all been there. About 2-5% of applications reach the interview stage and 20-30% of interviewed candidates are hired.

Hiring Manager Visibility

On average, hiring managers spend 8.5 seconds scanning a resume. Our goal is to make resumes stand out by:

  • Highlighting key experiences and removing outdated skills.

  • Shortening long paragraphs (or the resume as whole).

  • Cutting through the fluff.

Applicant Tracking System Compatibility

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) filter resumes by searching for keywords. With 87% of hiring managers using this tool we make a point of preventing ATS auto-rejection and improving ATS score by:

  • Including keywords relevant to the role.

  • Removing tables and text boxes.

  • Changing fancy fonts to more standard fonts.

Experienced Leadership

Message from the Founder, Prime CRA: Matthew M. Foster

Clinical trials & the research industry in general has the ability to address all 3 levels of health intervention That’s why I have committed myself to monitoring to ensure patient safety and quality data.

Through the lenses of public health, I see clinical research as a way to circulate life changing knowledge (primary intervention) to serve the community while providing various health services (secondary/tertiary interventions) to serve the individual. As a clinical research associate, I’m acclimated to using planning/preparation to attain success…but it wasn’t always this way.

A near-decade in clinical trials quickly taught me that preparation and determination were only as effective as the opportunities I was afforded. These opportunities can be lacking or abundant depending on the job market. Market oversaturation is not limited to the clinical trial industry and has only worsened post-pandemic. My ability thrive in this environment is a testament to my ability to navigate clinical trials and the employment process.

I am passionate about using my knowledge/experiences to help others and that is what inspired FQCM Co.
