I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ClearView Healthcare Partners (Boston, MA) in Oct 2019
Interview
The first round is campus interview which lasted for 30 min and had one short case. Then got invited to on site interviews which consisted of 4 rounds of case interviews straight. The interviewers were mainly focusing on technical questions such as which gene delivery carrier is preferred in terms of their biological features, etc. The most disappointing part of my experience was that they were holding my resume from last year. I don't know how the HR managed my application materials.

Question 1
What would you do if you were a CEO of a top pharma company?
I applied online. I interviewed at ClearView Healthcare Partners (New York, NY)
Interview
1 behavioral and 1 case study interview. Behavioral were common questinos: Why consulting, why Clearview, intro, a time you problem-solved, a time you worked with a difficult person. The case study was rushed, and it felt like someone was breathing down my neck. Market sizing and suggestions as to what actions the client should take.
Heard back the day after the deadline to schedule first round interview. 1 behavioral and 1 case. Then heard back within 2 days to schedule the final round which consisted of a strategy case and scientific discussion. Heard back within 2 days that I didn’t get the position. Quick response times and friendly people.
First round was a case interview with a consultant directly followed by a behavioral interview with HR. Behavioral questions were typical ones like "tell me about a time you made mistakes." Overall very respectful and pleasant conversation.
