      Business Development Specialist Interview

      Nov 30, 2012
      Anonymous employee
      Research Triangle Park, NC
      Accepted offer

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IQVIA (Research Triangle Park, NC)

      Interview

      I passed through 3 rounds of interview: 1. Another Business Development Specialist 2. My Supervisor 3. Director of Commercial Strategy. Interview was really relaxed and composed of mostly behavioral questions. They tested my industry knowledge with some general industry questions as well. I started network with the employees about 2 months before I submitted my resume. One of the interviewers was also the person who I networked with. Interview process was very simple. I got all the 3 rounds in a day, then they called me in 2 days to give me the offer. My experience was really great in their RTP headquarters. However the region is very small and if you like living in a big city, it may be hard for you to survive in RTP.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at IQVIA in Feb 2022

      Interview

      This was by far the worst interview experience I've had. The interview process started in February. I was first contacted by a recruiter and then moved forward to have 3 interview rounds, each with multiple members of the team. I had received great feedback and was told that they saw huge potential with me on the team and that I was in a great position within the hiring pool, they just needed to find the right fit within the team. From there weeks went by without me hearing anything. I followed up several times but didn't receive any clear communication on my candidacy status or what the next steps were. I had consistently been following up every few weeks and eventually in April heard back about another interview round. From there I had 2 more rounds of interviews only to stop hearing from them again. I continued to follow up for weeks after with them just saying the final decision hadn't been made yet. Eventually, I stopped reaching out and didn't hear anything from them until finally in mid July I received an automated rejection email. This was 6 MONTHS after I had initially been contacted by them. Job searching is exhausting and wasting a candidates time like this is never okay. Stringing a candidate along for months and putting them through 5+ interviews for one position is so disrespectful. I definitely feel like I dodged a bullet my not working at this company.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at IQVIA (London, England) in Jul 2019

      Interview

      Pre-screen with recruiter, 3 rounds with IQVIA starting with TC, then F2F with LM and final presentation on previous sales process achievements given to LM and a wider team. Pretty relaxing and straightforward process. Offer came in hours following the final round of interview. Much simpler process compared to other healthcare/life sciences organisations
