I interviewed at Pfizer

Interview

Standard questions about pharma procedures, mostly process not too detailed. Friendly recruiter. Asked to take raw data and produce a short summary, abstract length. Expectation was some experience in that domain, even if modest

Application

I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Pfizer in Jul 2014

Interview

Saw the position online and then sent my materials in-person and it took one week to get feedback. Got a phone interview July 2014. The phone interview lasts for approximately 15 min followed by an email attaching a 1.5 hour test, mainly about medical writing things. The phone interview was quit common, asking some information of background education, courses taken in college, why interested in this job and work experience.

Interview questions
  • The 1.5 hour test needs professional medical knowledge and writing skills.

Director

I have had 2 interviews thus far with a company one with the Sr HR mgr and another with a hiring manager. I was informed that I would be moving to the next steps. What could that be being that I have already interviewed with the hiring manager?

Specialist

Recruiter called me hours after my 2nd interview to tell me the conversations went well. I sent thank you email 2 business days after the interview & they replied saying they would know next steps by end of week. It's been 7 business days since that & 2 weeks since the interview. When is an appropriate time for a second follow up? The listing is still up and got reposted on LinkedIn. Sometimes that is automatic, but does this mean they are looking for a better fit and I am the back-up plan?

Manager

I applied for an internal position and had an informal conversation with the hiring manager. He didn’t seem sold on me and said he’d talk to my current manager to come with a development plan, but that has not happened. A candidate came into interview today and I never got any further update on my application. So, I’m assuming I’m not being considered. I found another opportunity posted today that’s not as big a promotion and at a different location. Is it ok apply even though I have one open?
