Sample interview questionsHow do you manage an SAE case from initial intake through regulatory reporting?I first confirm receipt and assess case validity, seriousness, expectedness, and reportability. I enter and code the case in the safety database, conduct follow-up as needed, prepare a medically coherent narrative, complete quality checks, and ensure submissions meet applicable local and global reporting timelines.

What steps do you take to ensure the quality of an individual case safety report?

I use a structured QC process that verifies source consistency, patient and event details, MedDRA and drug coding, dates, seriousness criteria, expectedness, narrative accuracy, and submission status. I also document discrepancies and ensure corrections are traceable and completed before finalization.

How have you used MedDRA and WHODrug in pharmacovigilance work?

I use MedDRA to code adverse events and medical history at the most appropriate level of specificity, and WHODrug to standardize medicinal product coding. I validate coding against source information and follow the study-specific coding convention and internal procedures.

How would you respond to a sponsor asking for urgent safety data analysis during an ongoing study?

I would clarify the question, timeline, data cut, and intended use, then coordinate with the relevant safety and data-management stakeholders. I would provide a quality-reviewed analysis based on current case data, clearly state limitations, and communicate findings in a timely, documented manner.

Describe how you would train a new team member or contractor on safety case processing.

I would begin with applicable SOPs, reporting plans, system workflows, and regulatory timelines, then demonstrate representative cases and supervise practice cases. I would use targeted feedback, document training completion, and confirm competency through reviewed work before independent processing.
