Recruitment fees are often seen as a significant cost but one key no-show or a mis-recruit can derail a study, especially a validation. It stands to reason that a poor-quality recruit will lead to poor quality insights and so we as recruiters know how important it is to get it right. A good recruiter will manage this stress for you and ensure your quotas are on target.
A worthwhile recruiter should understand your HF requirements are different from general market research, it is not just about getting bums on seats. If they don’t understand this, it is important to explain it to them. Build a good relationship with your recruiter, ensure they understand the FDA’s requirements and how important your quotas are.
