A CRO is a clinical research organization contracted by a sponsor to conduct research and clinical trials. The interviewer at Syneos Health would like to learn more about your background in this environment and whether you have worked for competitors. Give an honest answer. If you have no experience with other CROs, it's okay to acknowledge that, but give some insight into your background, education, and experience that will transfer to Syneos Health.

"Yes, I worked at IQVIA for about five years and supported projects relating to patient recruitment, site identification and selection, and assistance with protocol design. Before that, I worked at Parexel for two years in their decentralized clinical trial department. I'm familiar with the CRO model and structure and bring several years of experience in this environment."

"While I have never worked for a CRO, I'm very familiar with what they do and how they operate. My background is in sales, with biopharmaceutical experience at Roche and Amgen. I have several years of experience in sales, and I think many of my skills acquired in that setting will be transferable to Syneos Health as a CRO. I also have a very robust network within the industry that would be valuable to Syneos Health."
