Candidates should only apply to one Generation Veeva program.
 
The Role
 

We are hiring recent graduates into our Consultant Development Program (CDP) - an entry-level consulting role designed to accelerate your career.

 

In this high-impact, customer-facing position, you’ll work directly with pharmaceutical, biotech and medical device companies to implement Veeva’s technology and drive their business forward. Unlike traditional consulting roles that focus heavily on theory, you will work hands-on to design, configure, and deliver tangible technology solutions that customers use every day.

 

We believe in empowering high potential people to achieve excellence. You’ll be hands-on from day one – learning fast, contributing early, and taking on meaningful responsibility. We don't require a background in life sciences or technology. You bring your drive and hunger to learn; we’ll provide the training. This program will build the core consulting and technical expertise you need for long-term career success.

 

* Now hiring for our July and October 2026 start dates.

  • Experience: Recent university graduate (up to 2 years postgraduate experience maximum)

  • Application: Submit your resume, short cover letter, and take a personality test.
  • Initial Response: Within one week, we will notify you of your next step via email.
  • Interview & Case: A 60-minute interview followed by a case exercise. You will have three  days to prepare for the case exercise.
  • Decision: Within one week, we will extend an offer or let you know that we are not moving forward.
  • Commitment: You will have two weeks to accept your offer. We value commitment; once you accept, we will hold a spot for you and expect you to join us on your start date. Accepting an offer and continuing to interview would be an ethical violation in our view.

Compensation

  • Starting Salary: $80,000 USD
  • After one year, if you perform well, you will receive a compensation increase and participate in our bonus program
