Clipboard Operations Interview Questions
& Process

This was one of the most unique, challenging, and positive hiring processes I have gone through. Early on, you are required to submit a written case study and a lot of the focus of subsequent interviews is around this case. I had 3 interviews: manager, department head, and CEO. Each interviewer had clearly read my submission in depth, and asked very thorough and challenging questions about why I had proposed the solutions I had, and pushed my thinking on weaker components of my case in real time. The interview process is well-designed to get a read, for Clipboard Health, on how I would do in "real life" on the job. Furthermore, it gave me significant insight into the culture, values, and team that I would be joining, which I feel hiring processes too often miss the mark on. It made me very excited about the opportunity and the company.

STOP WASTING YOUR TIME ON CASE STUDIES!!! This is just a scam company. They don't need you but they want your opinion to run their business. That's how I felt, What a cheap innovative idea! Read all other comments about the interview process and they all are legit and genuine. The process is unusual, no humans, just a case study-based interview. Nobody calls you or there is no human interaction. All these comments here about the negative feedback about the interview process are genuine. If you check these comments before writing a long essay and wasting your time, just STOP! don't write. you will not get any response other than: "Thank you for taking the time to complete the written case study exercise for the IT Operations position. We are a culture built firmly on the philosophy that writing is thinking, which we know makes us different and unique, but this is specifically why we ask candidates to put pen to paper very early on in the interview process. After reviewing your responses in detail, we have made the tough decision to not move forward with your candidacy for the role. Again, we thank you for your time and do not take the time you spent on this assessment lightly. This is just as much about where we are as a company in terms of our size and growth, and we want to make sure that you would be set up for success. We wish you all the best in your job search!" Looks like these people are not even from the U.S. but interview U.S.-based candidates and as I noticed that emails come from an unusual U.S. time. I'm pretty sure they don't understand technical answers even though they ask many technical and managerial questions. And also I am pretty sure they don't take a minute to understand what you answered. This looks like a scam company, don't waste your time on case studies.

So I applied for the IT Operations job at Clipboard Health and man, the experience was not great. They sent me a written case study thing after I applied, which honestly felt like they were just trying to get ideas from me instead of actually considering me for the job. Like, no phone call or video chat, just an email with questions and then a rejection email a few days later, no feedback or anything. It was weird, felt more like they were just collecting info than trying to hire someone. If you're thinking about applying, just know you'll probably have to do a big written exercise with no real promise of moving forward or even talking to someone.
