Round: Case Study Interview
Experience: Keep calm. Do not make the interviewer think that you are tensed.
Heavy importance was given on numbers and interpretation on numbers.
Tips: 1.Candidate should start with understanding the case completely as a lot of information was given and explained. Any relevant Pharmaceutical words used in the case have to be clarified and no assumptions are to be made.
2.As the case had lot of information, it was necessary to isolate useful information from the irrelevant information.
3.Since the case included numbers and calculations, the calculations should be done correctly at the first time itself (time can be taken to compute the numbers).
4.Interpretation of the graphs is extremely important (and there were only few graphs). Pay close attention to X and Y axes and their units.
