About the role
This interview covers the regulatory work needed to register and maintain pharmaceutical products in Nigeria. The panel is looking for careful dossier review, sound judgement on changes and claims, and confident coordination across technical teams. You should show that you can protect compliance without losing sight of practical timelines.
How to prepare
- Review the current official NAFDAC guidance relevant to medicine registration, variations and product information.
- Prepare an example of finding and resolving a material gap in a technical dossier.
- Practise explaining how a manufacturing or supplier change could affect an approved registration.
- Map how you collect, review and approve contributions from quality, manufacturing, medical and commercial teams.
- Prepare a clear example of answering a difficult regulatory query under time pressure.
Common mistakes
- Treating submission work as document collection without checking consistency across the dossier.
- Quoting regulatory requirements from memory when current official guidance should be checked.
- Agreeing to promotional or packaging claims that are not supported by approved information.
- Describing timelines without explaining dependencies, owners and escalation points.
