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)

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.
