Describe a situation where you identified a flaw in a validation process. How did you address it, and what measures did you implement to ensure the flaw wouldn't recur in the future?"
Very unprofessional interviewer in Durham, NC. Missed scheduled phone interview and then we rescheduled for the next day. She called me 15 minutes after the scheduled time; I said would be able to speak tomorrow and we agreed on a time...never called me. First time this has ever happened to me. Did not think it would be from a prestigious company like Merck but....guess I was wrong.
