Varun's response indicates a disengagement with the question, as he simply states that he has already answered it without providing any additional insights or elaboration. This lack of engagement is concerning, especially in a role that requires effective communication and the ability to discuss relevant topics in depth. The benchmark response, in contrast, provides a comprehensive overview of how market research methodologies were applied to identify and capitalize on growth opportunities in the life sciences sector.

Varun should focus on actively participating in the discussion and providing detailed responses that reflect his knowledge and experience, rather than deflecting questions.
