Average interview
Application
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PPD (Madison, WI) in Oct 2014
Interview
I met with a variety of upper management roles to discuss my background, as well as my prospects and goals both inside and outside of the company. There was a brief tour around the facility at my request, during which I was given more details about the nature of the work, which is fairly difficult to explain in an interview setting.
Panel interview with three people then the director. Only one person at a time. One interview was technical questions, others were typical interview questions. Started with a “tell me more about…” from your resume.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What’s the difference between gram negative and gram positive bacteria?
I applied online. I interviewed at PPD (Richmond, VA)
Interview
Was not very well put together. The interviewers were essentially falling asleep as soon as they came in. It was not a good experience overall. The interview process is long, with interviewers who don’t engage with the interviewee.
