Behavioral Technical
My interview experience with Disgonatic Laboratory Services Hawaii was extremely unprofessional. One of the interviewers didn't turn on their camera during the interview, citing technical difficulties. This immediately created an unprofessional atmosphere, making the conversation feel one-sided and lacking basic courtesy. In today’s professional setting, video presence should be a minimum standard, and its absence made the entire process feel impersonal and frustrating. Overall, this was one of the worst interviews I have ever experienced, and I would not recommend interviewing with this company.

Behavioral Technical
I applied in November and heard back within about two months to set up an interview for the following week. It was just a one-on-one interview where we jumped right into the questions. After the interview, the interviewer told me about the benefits and said she'd look for a phlebotomist position that matched my availability. The next step is waiting for her to call back to see if she found a match. I'm still waiting to hear if I got the job.

HR reached out to me first to do a typing and data entry test at home. The tests weren't super hard, but they should adjust the difficulty based on the role. For example, a data entry applicant shouldn't need the same score as a lab tech. HR was really helpful and let me re-test when needed. Then, I interviewed with the accounting supervisor and the CFO. It was pretty relaxed, actually. The CFO made me feel really comfortable. The whole interview was about 30 minutes. After that, the accounting supervisor gave me an accounting test to do, which also took about 30 minutes.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- I don't recall the specific interview questions because they were pretty straightforward, but I did take an accounting test created by the accounting supervisor that was relevant to the job description.
- I'm not sure what questions are asked for the lab employees, but they do a lot of on-site training.

First HR will do the personal interview. If you pass that, then a department supervisor or seniors will conduct another panel interview. You'll probably know if you're getting the job after the second interview. Wait a week for them to call you with a job offer. The last step is the background check, which can take a month, especially if you're from another country. Once everything's clear, you'll do a drug screening, which is the final application step.
