IQVIA Interview Tips

IQVIA is looking for candidates with the ability to generate high-level insights from data. Make sure you gather only the data/information necessary to inform your recommendation in the sample case interview.

Take your case study game to the next level by timing yourself in this case. Recommended timing is 2 minutes to build your structure and 2 minutes to present it; 2 minutes each for a brainstorming question; 2 minutes for a final recommendation.
