      Contract Specialist Interview

      Oct 20, 2018
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Taipei
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Parexel (Taipei) in Sep 2018

      Interview

      Before the interview, they asked you to answer some questions and you type your answer in a word file. For example, they asked you "Your motivation to apply for this position". Then, they asked you to finish a English online exam to see your level of English. Finally, they gave you the date and time for the interview. It was a phone interview because the senior contract specialist is away from the country. She asked me a whole bunch of questions over the phone. Then, it comes with word and excel tests, which I found extremely hard. I don't have this kind of test experience. The job is much more related to business/statistic management. It's very different from my background. A HR reach out to me from a job bank database. I guess he is just being nice to give me an opportunity to try. It was a great experience overall. And I know the job responsibilities a lot better because the lady explained to me thoroughly. I very appreciate the HR specialist to give me this opportunity.

      Phone call with HR. They asked many questions but did not care to hear my response. Keep saying uh huh yeah distracting my train of thought. It was very fast and you could tell they were weaving through people.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Parexel

      Interview

      no chance to have one even if I hold a law degree obtained in a prestigious University from another country, with an excellent mark, and despite the fact that experience was not mentioned in the job advertisement. They rejected my application via e-mail
