I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Veeva Systems (New York, NY) in July 2022
Interview
1 week from application HR contacted me to schedule a call with the hiring manager. Initial call was just a discovery of sorts with general info on the role and not much background on me- provided work samples after. Had a follow up 2 days later where we delved DEEPLY into work history- literally started at college and went through 20+ years of industry experience. In detail. Was asked to provide a more detailed version of my resume after this- a bit odd, but I obliged and rewrote it to their requests.
2 days later, another follow up call (that's 3 in a week)- this time, to discuss a sample exercise that was 'homework'. Got the details and agreed to complete within a week.
Submitted the project early, and was contacted relatively quickly with feedback. Made requested revisions and then got an invite to 'sync'.
On the sync call I was told that they wouldn't be moving forward with me as a candidate, and they explained it was based on a single piece of sample content I'd written- guess the comprehensive marketing strategy for said content wasn't weighted very much... an odd end to an otherwise pleasant journey.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Be prepared to discuss, down to the most minor details, your work history
I applied online. I interviewed at Veeva Systems (London, England)
Interview
Overall, a pleasant process where you get to meet a variety of stakeholders within and also outside of your team. The questions weren't too difficult to answer and there were no 'trick questions.'
My role had 4 rounds, including a panel where I presented.
The only caveat was that the company is expanding rapidly and processes can become quite diluted. It took around 3 months from the first interview to the offer.
I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Veeva Systems
Interview
My first interview was with the hiring manager, not the recruiter. The hiring manager was late, did not introduce herself or the company, and made it very clear she had a set amount of time. During the interview, it was about my previous experience, technical capabilities, etc - typical first interview questions. There was not much time for me to ask questions. The way some questions were asked didn’t really instill a great company culture vibe.
Overall, I think they were very transparent on what they expect from a candidate and it was not an ideal fit for me.

Interview
Intro call with basic questions direct with HM. Scheduling for next interview seemed needlessly difficult and drawn out. Eventually was set for early morning (their request). They then canceled immediately before interview and ended the process. Felt very disorganized and unprofessional.
