Interlace Health Interview Questions
& Process

Got to meet the President and other execs, which was great for seeing if I'd fit in and understanding the company better. The process was really thorough, so I wasn't surprised by anything once I started.

The whole hiring thing took over 7 weeks from start to finish. First, I spoke with the manager, then I had a Skype chat with the director. After that, I met with other project managers, some area managers, and the president in a 3-hour interview. They really dug deep, and I also did a bunch of online tests. The very last interview was in person with the director. It might sound like a lot, but they were really committed to finding the right person, which I appreciate. The questions they asked were kinda hard and mostly about skills and working with others.

I was found for this role by a recruiter and applied through them. I wasn't going to apply originally because I was planning a move to California, but the recruiter told me the position was remote and could be worked from anywhere, so I had them submit my application. There were 3 interviews in total. The first was a phone interview with the hiring manager where we discussed the role, responsibilities, travel, and compensation. The second interview was face-to-face with the hiring manager, where we reviewed my resume and they asked about my technical skills and documentation abilities. I confirmed again about my move to California, and they said it was fine. I had a third interview with the COO about a week later. No highly technical questions were asked, but they inquired about my strongest IT skill and my experience in the healthcare field. I mentioned my move to California again, and the COO said it wasn't a problem but would complicate things slightly. A few days later, the recruiter called and said Formfast wanted to hire me as a full-time employee, not a contractor. The salary I asked for was a bit high, so we started negotiating. After a week with no progress, and then two weeks, my recruiter called back saying I was still the top candidate but that hiring would take longer due to a new HR rep joining the company. Two more weeks passed with no updates. Finally, the recruiter called to say Formfast was growing rapidly and deciding between hiring a Solutions Consultant or a Manager. He said if they needed a Solutions Consultant, the position would be mine. This didn't make sense, as they had already interviewed and offered me the role. A month passed with no word. I searched the job description online and found the same opening through an HR firm, which contradicted what I was told about no longer interviewing. I contacted my recruiter, who contacted the company. They admitted they reopened the position and were looking for candidates with managerial experience, even though it wasn't in the job description. I was very frustrated by the lack of transparency and feeling strung along. At this point, I no longer wanted the position, questioning how they treat their employees. I suspect they were making excuses and likely didn't want to pay the recruiter's fee after hiring the HR rep, deciding to search for candidates themselves. This was an awful experience, and the recent positive company review seems dishonest.

I spoke with multiple managers over a couple of days, one after the other. It wasn't too challenging, mostly superficial questions. I was surprised they didn't ask more, and they struggled to answer many of my questions. Maybe because I came from a competitor, they seemed hesitant.
