I applied online. I interviewed at IQVIA (New York, NY)
Interview
Very straightforward. First an intro call which focused on behavioral aspects. Then there was the first case round. It was like any other consulting cases where they presented you with a problem and you had to develop a framework and justify your thought process. No right or wrong answer

Question 1
Talk about yourself and run me through your resume
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IQVIA (Tokyo) in Dec 2017
Interview
3 Round Interview Process
- Generally very casual
- 1st round was basically the decisive round
- Nothing technical, mostly company fitting and personal interest in the company / position
- 2nd Round was more of an opportunity for me to ask questions regarding the company / position
- 3rd Round was the most stringent, had difficulty however ended up positively
- Questions were more on personal ambitions going forward and how I can contribute to the company from it
- All were 1 v 1 interviews
- All were conducted in Japanese (however I was asked whether Japanese or English was preferred)
- Depending on your interviewer your mileage will vary greatly
