I applied over the weekend and got a call from the lab supervisor the same week to set up an interview. The interview was with three people: the supervisor, a team leader, and a lab member. They started by talking about the position, work hours, benefits, and parking. Then they tried to scare me by mentioning drug/smoking testing if I got the position, so I should be prepared. They could be engaging or show no emotion. At the end of their questions, they showed me where I'd be working so I could get a good understanding. If you don't have questions at the end or don't want to walk around the lab, they might not be interested in you.

There were 2 interviews for this role. The first was a phone interview. It wasn't too tough; they mostly asked about salary, shift times, and location, plus some general interview stuff. The second interview was more in-depth, so make sure you do your research and are ready.

Behavioral Technical

I've gone through three interviews at CCF for lab medicine roles, and I got hired for all of them. It seems like each department handles the process a bit differently. For the first lab tech job, things moved really fast from applying to starting. The other two took way longer, stretching out over two months each.
