It started with a phone screen with some basic questions. Then, there was a Zoom interview. It was a very casual and friendly process where they asked about my past experiences, my long-term career goals, and the skills I've developed that would be useful for the job.

It was a quick virtual interview with several team members. They asked me questions about patient care and my personal strengths and weaknesses. The conversation with the team was very relaxed and friendly. They gave a good description of the unit and were happy to answer all my questions.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process involved a few meetings with managers and an initial chat with HR. It was a slow process overall. It's recommended to negotiate for a higher salary when you receive an offer, as promotions may only result in small raises, and your overall compensation might end up being significantly below market rate.

Behavioral Technical

Applied about 3 weeks ago and then got scheduled for an interview. Had an hour-long phone interview with two higher-ups. They asked about my current position and the tests I was familiar with, and also about my willingness to learn, but not many technical questions. HR was super responsive the whole time. Got an offer a week later for a better position than I applied for.
