Background Check
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Two standard cases with attached behavioral components and one detailed case that consisted of a major clinical data dump for a given product, which I was then expected to follow up by quickly building a rudimentary Excel model and PPT presentation to then present to partners afterwards over the course of 4h.

The initial two cases were very atypical and nothing like I'd seen online prior with preparations, involving hypothetical client cases that were very qualitative and had very disparate quant and qual sections. The qual sections related to BD&L and were focused on assessing and prioritizing what were the likely best routes to commercializing and monetizing the client's technology (e.g., the second was a case where an AI company had developed a machine to help discover SM compounds and they were curious about co-dev, basic outlicensing, greenfield, etc. approaches to commercialization.
