The people I talked to were really nice and kept me updated. It was a fast and efficient process, which I appreciated since I applied online and often don't hear back. Even though I wasn't the best fit for the role, the interview experience itself was good.

Behavioral Presentation

Interview with recruiter, then interview with 2 team members, then interview with 3 more team members. After that, there was a follow up with the recruiter, and then I received a verbal offer. The team members gave me a good idea of the type of work involved in the open position. The format was more discussion-based, focusing on my past experiences, how I could apply my skills to the role, and my future aspirations.

Behavioral Technical

Applied online on Thursday and got a call from a recruiter the following Monday. Four days after that (Friday), I had a quick phone call and later that same day, I was told I'd advanced to the next interview round. The interview was on the next Tuesday. It was a 1-hour video call, done remotely because of lockdown, with two people from the account team. They were really nice and made me feel comfortable the whole time. I got the offer two days later, on Thursday! The whole thing, from applying to getting the offer, took just two weeks. Even though I applied for Account Executive, I mentioned my interest in medical writing during the interview and ended up being offered a Medical Writer position.
