I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IQVIA (Basel) in Mar 2017
Interview
1. Phone interview. General questions about CV and why interested in consulting and, specifically in IQVIA
2. Phone interview. Questions about why interested in IQVIA. One short (20min) business case
3. Face-to-face interview. Behavioural questions (1h). Two business cases: the first interactive with an interviewer (30 minutes); and the second based on some client information on a paper and then presenting the conclusions at the end(1 hour)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Client wants to launch a drug for two indications: to mitigate menopause symptoms and to stimulate hair growth. Do market sizing. What are potential pitfalls in launching this? Which indication would you prioritise and why?
The process included a HireVue interview, a behavioral screening, and multiple case interview rounds, including a group case interview. Everything was conducted online. The cases were a mix of individual and team-based exercises that assessed problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.
It went well. The interviewer was friendly and the overall experience felt comfortable. Expect a few puzzle-based questions along with detailed discussions around your projects, problem-solving approach, and decisions you made while building or handling different machine learning or data science tasks.
Applied through handshake. Interview was two rounds and one case interview. Case interview was pretty straight forward. Asked a typical sizing question. Can prepare for these kinds of questions online
