Why

This is an entry-level, paid, SF in-person research coordinator role (about $68K), which fits her location and seniority. The content is pulmonary and asthma biomarker research, well outside her mental health, forensic and UX lanes. It is also likely a full-time position needing an immediate start, which clashes with her senior year, and she has no clinical research or lab experience. Her Research Methods coursework, documentation and scheduling work, and comfort with families could transfer, but she would be a stretch candidate. It is worth only a low-priority look unless the employer would hold the start until after May 2027.

Watch out for

• Pulmonary/asthma biomarker research is medical, not psychology or mental health
• Likely requires prior clinical research or patient-facing clinical experience she lacks
• Full-time role likely needing an immediate start, before her May 2027 graduation
• Posted through a staffing firm (Actalent), so the contract/temp nature and conversion path are unclear
• Description is truncated, so the full requirements are unknown

Resume angles

• Research Methods coursework and literature review writing (Writing in Psychology)
• Accurate documentation and daily Excel tracking across three locations at Kiddleton
• Patient-facing, confidential customer service and coordination of concurrent projects
