PPD is now part of Thermo Fisher Scientific. On December 8, 2021, Thermo Fisher Scientific completed the acquisition of PPD. For up-to-date information, please see the Thermo Fisher Scientific profile..
I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at PPD in Apr 2021
Interview
First interview was through phone and went over basics like salary, hours, and benefits. Second series of interviews was through video call to select teams. Second interviews went more in-depth on experiences and what you're looking for in a team.
Overall very streamlined and efficient. As an FSP role, I interviewed with both the PPD manager and the contracted team (Pharma company I would be working for). Consisted of an initial screening interview with talent acquisition, then an hour interview split between PPD and Pharma managers, then if that went well invited for a panel interview with the pharma team I would be joining.
