Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

As a Data Analysis undergraduate in Optimization, Analytics and Recruitment Solutions, I worked in global clinical trial planning and feasibility assessment across different therapeutic areas. I assisted senior colleagues with data driven decision-making regarding site and country footprints based on robust analyses and insights gained from collaboration with cross functional colleagues.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

I was given plenty of responsibility to represent Pfizer in external-facing communications, voice my ideas and concerns in internal stakeholder meetings and present data that I had analysed to colleagues.
