I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ClearView Healthcare Partners (Boston, MA) in Oct 2018
Interview
On campus interview - 30mins total with a couple behaviorals and a brief case. This was followed by an invitation to their Newton office, and I had 4 interviews there, and each was essentially the same as the on-campus, but with a bit more nuance - they pushed you to go beyond the standard pharma casing thought process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Client is a small biotech considering developing a gene therapy as one of their first pipelines. What do you recommend to them?
I applied online. I interviewed at ClearView Healthcare Partners (New York, NY)
Interview
1 behavioral and 1 case study interview. Behavioral were common questinos: Why consulting, why Clearview, intro, a time you problem-solved, a time you worked with a difficult person. The case study was rushed, and it felt like someone was breathing down my neck. Market sizing and suggestions as to what actions the client should take.
Heard back the day after the deadline to schedule first round interview. 1 behavioral and 1 case. Then heard back within 2 days to schedule the final round which consisted of a strategy case and scientific discussion. Heard back within 2 days that I didn’t get the position. Quick response times and friendly people.
First round was a case interview with a consultant directly followed by a behavioral interview with HR. Behavioral questions were typical ones like "tell me about a time you made mistakes." Overall very respectful and pleasant conversation.
