I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IQVIA (Toronto, ON)
Interview
An incredibly lengthy interview process with little information as to what you will be doing in the 6 hours.
2- 1 hour behaviour interviews, basic stuff trying to understand who you are and how you work with others. they want you to be authoritative but also compliant. communication is key
15 minute writing test - write an email about changing a study protocol to a client
hour long analysis interview - figure out what's wrong with a graph etc. and forecast revenue over 3 years of a drug.
then a group interview - develop study protocol to determine effeciency of adrug.
they were all very unproffesional. would not recommend.
they take you in for 6 hours, don't let you sit by yourself. no breaks apart from lunch. if you keep someone in for that long you better have the courtesy to send an email rejection if the interview didn't go well. they just completely ghosted.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at IQVIA (Plymouth Meeting, PA) in Apr 2019
Interview
It was a two month long process starting from the recruiter to getting the final decision after my onsite round in plymouth meeting. They initially started with a round where they got to know more about my background and projects, next i was asked about pharma/healthcare, then what datasets i have worked with and in what capacity, Tableau, Alteryx and Excel were tested live through screen share. In the end it was another excel and case test onsite.
