Interview process with the talent acquisition was very smooth. Interview with the hiring manager was not so smoothly conducted. Interviewer clearly had made up her mind even before the interview and did not even properly listened to the answers provided.

Question 1
How would you describe the consent process at the site?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Syneos Health in Jan 2022
Interview
The interview process didn't focus much abilities as a CRA. Your experience will differ depending on luck of the draw but my video interview was with an associate director and silent observer who went essentially un-introduced. Complete one-way avenue, no conversation to get started. The interviewer was nice enough on the surface, but didn't seem interested in building a rapport, she just wanted to get through a script and expected me to provide lengthy examples to "tick" the right boxes behaviorally. I've had countless CRO interviews, worked for 2 and usually enjoy the interview process.
