I applied online. I interviewed at PPD in Dec 2019
Interview

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PPD in Sept 2021
Interview
First I received a call from the PPD recruiter, I was asked about my relevant experience and job expectations. Then I was invited for a formal interview which was about 1.5 hour, interviewers were very very kind and polite and I did not feel under pressure. We talked about PPD, my previous experience and I was asked some standard and some tricky interview questions. Overall it was not too difficult.
