Procurement of reagents and equipment is a common yet often overlooked responsibility of a Clinical Research Associate. Like most other things in the field, it's necessary to understand what type of organization you are applying for since different organizations handle procurement differently regarding finding, getting quotes, and budgets. Your interviewer will likely ask you situation-based questions to understand how you outline your process and how well you can explain your steps to others.
