Sample Answer

At my last placement I led a 9-person cross-functional team to launch a targeted lung cancer awareness campaign tied to a Phase IV evidence generation program. Clinical and medical affairs wanted scientific fidelity, commercial wanted clear prescribing signals, and regulatory was laser-focused on compliant language. I scheduled a three-week alignment sprint with weekly working sessions and a shared decision matrix to map acceptable claims, data cutoffs, and stakeholder sign-off points. We co-created two HCP-facing assets and one patient brochure, iterating with real-time legal reviews. The campaign reached 7,200 oncologists in six months, referral rates improved 18%, and post-launch audit found zero compliance issues. The program also generated 1,100 opt-ins for the registry in quarter one.
