J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez PPD (Madison, WI) en avr. 2017
Entretien
I applied to PPD and had a phone interview scheduled the same day I applied. During the phone interview, the questions and conversation were very straight forward, easy, and friendly until the discussion of salary expectations. After much research into CROs, and local salaries for similar positions/experience (a lot of it on Glassdoor!), I was quoted a salary range at least 20K below any salary I had seen for similar experience, even lower than some reported salaries for PPD itself on Glassdoor. It was insulting and clearly PPD salaries are at least 10 years behind where they should be. At the same time, I know a number of people who have left, likely for greener pastures due to the poor compensation. I turned down an in person interview unless they could come closer to my salary expectations.

Had online web interview , asked some technical questioned and reply accordingly and get select . But i seen Interview team is not that experience the way they asking the questioned and finally they select me for seniors scientist position but my interview was for position of Associate research scientist which i decline . Overall i see the process of interview average and i think PPD team is not that experience to judge the candidate.

Entretien
First, I had a phone call with the HR to describe the company, the roles, and ask about salary range. Then, a second, informal, phone call with a senior manager to discuss my experience. Finally, the formal interview was held remotely via Microsoft Teams with three managers, back to back, around 45 minutes each. All their questions were behavioral interview questions, asking about situations from the past and how I dealt with. The best strategy to answer these questions is the STAR method. The interviewers were very friendly. A couple of days later, the HR informed me that I was accepted, and a few days later I received the official offer letter. Overall, it was a very good experience, but it needs some practice.

Was about 3 hours. Gave a presentation, followed by one-to-one sessions by three or four different senior scientists. Got the facility tour. Very friendly. A lot of questions were asked but nothing really tricky.
