How to prepare for a biotech interview in 7 days

A day-by-day plan covering technical, behavioural and HR rounds — used by 200+ BioBridge alumni.

You have an interview next week. Here is the 7-day plan our placed students follow.

Day 1–2: Map the role

Read the JD line by line. For every skill listed, write one example from your projects or internship that proves it.

Day 3–4: Drill the technicals

Pick 15 likely technical questions for your role. Write 3-sentence answers. Practice out loud.

Day 5: Company research

Read their latest annual report or press release. Find 2 products, 1 recent regulatory event, and 1 question to ask them.

Day 6: Mock interview

Do one full mock with a senior or a mentor. Record it. Watch it back at 1.25x. It hurts. It works.

Day 7: Rest + logistics

Confirm timing, route, documents. Sleep 8 hours. Do not cram.
