I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Parexel in Mar 2014
Interview
I went through an outside recruiter. She reviewed my resume and told I would be a good fit for the position. We reviewed my resume and she took down some notes before she forwarded my resume to Parexel. In a few days later, I had a telephone chat with the outside recruiter's manager. We talked and she asked me some questions about my resume and she also asked what I did at a monitoring visit.
I was scheduled for a telephone interview with HR personnel from Parexel and it went pretty well. At least I felt comfortable answering the questions. I also had the opportunity of asking a lot about the company.

The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Parexel in Apr 2010
Interview
The recruiter from Parexel called to discuss the position and compile my background info into a profile to submit to the clinical trial team to see if they were interested in me. Within a matter of days she emailed me and told me that I would be contacted by the scheduling dept regarding a phone interview. She also explained that the hiring process would involved 2 phone interviews and that there would not be a face to face interview due to cost. The first interview was with a Clinical trial manager. It mainly consist of behavioral questions. The manager also was very informative about the interview process, the company and the job. A day after the interview I was contacted for anpther interview.
