      Clinical Research Associate Interview

      30 Sept 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Budapest
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at MSD in May 2023

      Interview

      2 contacts with recruiters, was asked general questions in local language and 1 in English. Afterwards a 3rd meeting was set-up with 3 people: 1 project manager and 2 people manager. Typical interview questions and technical questions. After accepting the offer, a background check was triggered, which requiered offical documents. Would have been nice if this was mentioned during the interview process to start preparation.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at MSD (Budapest) in Sept 2023

      Interview

      My experience based on the frist round with the recruiter. It was pretty easy with general questions, we also talked about my availability for the next week for the face to face interview. Then nothing happened… after 2 weeks I sent an email to the recruiter to ask for a feedback, and I don’ t even received an answer. I don’t really understand, why is it a big thing to send a feedback: “ sorry, we choose another candidate but thanks”. Disappointing.
