      Senior Medical Writer Interview

      28 July 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Kenilworth, NJ
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Merck (Kenilworth, NJ)

      Interview

      The process was smooth, and initially, fast. I had a couple phone interviews, and they quickly scheduled me for an on-site day of face-to-face interviewing. The actual conversations were fairly desultory--I think they could judge from my CV that I had the requisite experience. The post-acceptance processing took longer, so all in all it was about 8 weeks from contact to starting the job, although admittedly this was during holiday season. The only bad part of all this was a required medical exam--not just a drug test, an exam with a doctor-- at a doc-in-the-box shop that was located over an hour from my city!

      Question 1

      Frankly my interview was a milk run--like they just wanted to be sure that I didn't have 2 heads!
