Sample interview questions
How do you manage clinical data management activities from study start-up through database lock?

I begin by translating the protocol into a data management plan, CRF specifications, database build requirements, edit checks, and clear ownership across the study team. Throughout execution, I monitor data quality, query metrics, enrollment status, reconciliation activities, and risks against milestones, then ensure all outstanding issues and documentation are resolved before database lock.

Describe your approach to developing and testing an EDC database.

I work with clinical, biostatistics, safety, and sponsor stakeholders to define CRF requirements and data validation rules. I document test cases, execute or oversee UAT, record defects and resolutions, verify fixes through retesting, and maintain controlled evidence showing that the production database meets approved specifications.

How do you ensure high-quality clinical data while protecting study timelines?

I use risk-based review and timely metrics to prioritize issues that could affect patient safety, primary endpoints, or database lock. Clear data-entry guidelines, targeted training, proactive query management, and regular communication with sites and vendors help prevent recurring errors and keep work progressing without compromising quality.

What is your experience with medical coding and safety reconciliation?

I have experience reviewing adverse events, concomitant medications, and medical history data for consistency and supporting coding with dictionaries such as MedDRA and WHODrug. For safety reconciliation, I establish a documented cadence with the safety team, investigate discrepancies promptly, and track them through documented resolution before lock.

How would you handle a sponsor or vendor escalation that threatens a key data management milestone?

I would first clarify the issue, impact, dependencies, and decision owner, then develop a practical recovery plan with prioritized actions and owners. I would communicate the risk transparently to the sponsor and project team, provide regular progress updates, and document decisions so the team can protect critical deliverables and prevent recurrence.
