Behavioral Case
This was my first case interview experience, and I feel like I didn’t do great, which is fine, I get why I wasn't hired. The initial round, which included behavioral questions and a mini case, was done over the phone. I found this really intimidating for my first case interview. Trying to fit both behavioral questions and a case into a single 60-minute interview meant there wasn't really time for me to ask my own questions. I emailed my questions to the interviewer, and they mentioned I'd likely hear from HR within a week. However, I was rejected the very next day. The really frustrating part is that Kaiser apparently has a policy against providing interview feedback, which is a shame because they seem to hire a lot of young professionals who would really benefit from that kind of input.

Case Behavioral Other
This was a lengthy interview process with multiple rounds of interviews. They included both case and behavioral interviews, plus a skills assessment. The case parts were mostly led by the interviewer and focused on market sizing and profit-loss calculations. The whole thing took about 8 hours and happened across four rounds, mostly during work hours.
