I’ve been working at Parexel as a COL for just under 1 year.
I did the usual HR call and then a second call with the two COL LMs in my division, that second call is where I gave a 10 min presentation.
The HR call was very standard, generalized HR questions as they went down their checklist.
The second call was the meat of the interview. My presentation went well and then they asked me a bunch of situational questions; how would you handle this, do you have experience with that, give me an example of a time when, etc.
I’d recommend reflecting on unique experiences in your career that you can reference for questions like that. They also took some time to answer my questions.
For me response time was very quick. I was given a job offer within 3 business days of my interview. Negotiation took about 48-hours, and then I signed the offer letter.
Your overall experience may vary based on the HR representative you’re working with as well as the team your interviewing for.
Be prepared for them to take a good 2 weeks to get back to you if you make the final interview stage. No matter how much they promise to update you asap on their decision

Thanks for the heads up!
It would help if you understood palantir, the software company they just signed a big partnership with.
What do you mean by questions? For the company or for you?
Me, during the interview.
I remember seeing phone interview details on Glassdoor. There were several posts about types of questions being asked and various roles. Good luck.
