Give the interviewer an overview of your years of experience in the industry and highlight your most relevant and senior positions. If you have gaps or short stints in employment history, explain the reason for that (perhaps it appears as though you've "job hopped," but those roles were just contract positions). If you've worked for direct competitors of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, be sure to speak to that.
When speaking about what keeps you interested in working in pharma/biotech, be genuine about what makes you feel passionate about your work in this industry.
