Very quick to get back about dates for interviews, very welcoming and the tour was thorough. Made sure to offer water and any questions I had were answered well. I felt like there was a lot to learn and that they would be willing to help with that
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
When has a customer in the past for your current job had an unreasonable request and how did you respond?
Very friendly fairly easy. Very helpful when moving offered me a list of apartments to look into. Thorough interview with different parts of the team I was to be working with at the time
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.

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.
