I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at PPD (Madrid) in Aug 2018
Interview
Además de defender un caso práctico, se utiliza la metodología STAR: Situación, Tarea, Acción, Resultado. La entrevista normalmente es online (Skype, Teams...) y lo más importante es estar preparado para exponer ejemplos de las situaciones que te preguntan, y responder con un ejemplo, qué acción realizaste, y por supuesto el resultado. Es un tipo de entrevista donde se evalúa realmente la capacidad del candidato basándose en su experiencia.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Caso práctico (te lo envían 45 min antes de la entrevista y hay que defenderlo apoyándote en un ppt) + 1.5h de Situación, Tarea, Acción, Resultado
it was a good experience. short lived because of the merger with Thermofisher. Learned a lot in oncology and CRA team management. not the direction my career took off in
They greeted me and asked me a few questions tested my english and then I answered them and I passed the interview. Then they offered me a job and I declined it cuz I wanted a better offer
The process took 2 days. I interviewed at PPD (Cary, NC)
Interview
It was one video interview with a People Manager and Director. It started with general conversation then moved to CV review. I was asked to talk through my CV and they asked related questions. Behavior based questions followed. It wrapped up with "why PPD" and decision timelines and communication.
