First, there was a recruiter screening call about fit. Then, an in-person interview with the supervisor covering role basics, knowledge checks, and expectations. They also reviewed my resume to see how my experiences fit the role.

Behavioral

The process to actually get an interview is lengthy. There is a huge gap in time from point of application, to phone interview, to in person interview. Once I received a call to come in for an interview, it was for the same week. They give GREAT directions to get to where your interview will take place. It's a LOT of walking so wear comfortable shoes! I interviewed with the recruiter, department manager, department administrator, and someone else from the department. I was there for about 4 hours, but really enjoyed my time there. The people were great and friendly. I sent a follow up and thank you for the interview email. While I didn't receive feedback for THAT position, they called me back to interview for another.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

First, I had a phone interview with the operations manager. Then, I was invited for a face-to-face interview with the manager and department administrator. The interview went well, and they said I was the top candidate. I sent a thank you email the next day and they immediately asked me to come back the next day for a 2-hour interview with faculty. During this second interview, they offered me the job and I met some residents and other team members. As I was leaving, the department secretary congratulated me and said I'd receive the call and offer letter from HR by Friday. It's now two weeks later, and I've heard nothing. I've sent follow-up emails, but the manager is now unresponsive. I can't believe they verbally offered me the job and now there's nothing. It's shameful coming from such a prestigious organization.
