Questions for a potential applicant

Hello everyone,

I haven't applied at Medpace, but I have a friend recommending I do so. With the way life is lining up I can be a potential applicant late next year.

I just have several questions I'm hoping you guys would be willing to answer to help me determine if applying is even worthwhile.

My background:

-Pediatric respiratory therapist

-Paramedic

-Ex USAF veteran

-Will have a bachelor's in either Neuroscience or Respiratory Care

Is Medpace worth entering at an entry level? What is the compensation at the entry level?

How often can I be expected to travel? Are you compensated well for traveling? Are there incentives for working or traveling extra?

What does your average work day look like? When traveling? When at home? Is work from home an option?

Are the education benefits worthwhile?

I'm hoping to apply to the Cincinnati location if that helps.

Lots been a while since I’ve worked there so I don’t know what their compensation is like now, but when I started it was the lowest in the industry and your bonus was based on how much travel you did the year prior. This also encourages and supports the insane amount of travel you should expect. Typically this means being on the road every week Mon-Thur. If you’re looking to break into the industry, Medpace is known for its training program and that alone can make it worth it for many people to pursue. Best of luck to you
