Interview
You get 2 rounds:
Round 1 is more about you, your CV, why you want to job, if you're a good fit.
Round 2 is a presentation to 3 senior associates based on pre-read (usually a clinical trial) and more strategic and more fit questions.

Interview
Das Gespräch hat an einem Freitag Nachmittag stattgefunden, die Interviewer kamen zu spät, wollten mich gar nicht wirklich kennen lernen. Im Gespräch hat sich auch herausgestellt, dass die Stellenanzeige fehlerhaft war.
