I got a call from HR recruiter (an ADP recruiter from PA), though the job is located in CA. He asked general questions and promised to connect me with "one of the Vice presidents" to talk to me within the next couple of days. A week went by before he called back and then scheduled a phone interview with a senior director of statistical programming. The appointment was moved around more than three times, a sign of confusion and instability. After about two weeks of indecision, she called me and told me about the job and then asked what I have been doing and how I can help their organization. I provided her a broad perspectives on my skills and experience with specifics on strategic evaluation of current situation, CDISC strategy and implementation, NDA/BLA submissions, short-term and long-term strategy and the management of standards across multi-disciplinary groups (Biostatistics, Programming, Data management, Electronic Submissions and collaboration with clinical operations & IT). She responded with: "This is exactly what we need". She promised to direct HR to follow up with me and gave me her phone number. After a week was gone and no contact, I called the HR recruiter (left a message for him) and followed up with email. He never replied. Another week was gone, I called the hiring manager (left a message for her, but no reply). After a couple of more weeks, I tried each one again, no reply, there and then, I concluded that the organization was still in a shock of acquisition and re-organization. My general impression is that this company seems to be in a state of low morale and "unknowns" and with some insecurity wind blowing across the organization. They could do a better job by respecting the time and efforts of potential candidates with some effective communication. It does not take much to call or send a message to candidate stating: "Thanks for your time, we are not interested".
