So, it was a few rounds. First, I had a quick chat with a recruiter. Then, I met with the hiring manager who I would have been reporting to. After that, I talked with some other people on the team. Finally, I had a meeting with a leader from the C-suite.

First round consisted of basic questions, process improvement discussion, expected salary, and how I found out about the role. They also asked about a time I automated a process and a general 'tell me about yourself' question. After that, they mentioned there would be 3 more rounds conducted over Teams.

The interview process started initially with a screening call, and then a virtual interview with the hiring manager. The second round of interview was with the clinical specialist team, which was about 10 individuals in a group interview setting. I also was scheduled for two additional virtual interviews with nursing leadership. In the end, they went with an another candidate. Of note, this is my second time interviewing for this organization and did not get an offer for either positions.

Behavioral Technical

I interviewed with the PA director for 2 hours. We talked a lot about the job details and they asked me questions about my past experiences. After the interview, I gave them 3 references. Then, I met with a lead PA and some other team members. I was there for 3 hours total. I didn't hear back for 2 weeks, so I reached out to see if they needed anything else. A week later, they replied saying they'd make a decision soon. But I never heard back again. It's annoying that they didn't even tell me they weren't moving forward.
