Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.
Pharmacist
The interview is done on Zoom with a few pharmacy managers. It starts with everyone introducing themselves. Then, the managers ask questions, and at the end, you get a chance to ask your own questions.
- Can you tell me why you applied for this pharmacist position?
- What would you say are your greatest strengths?
- What are your weaknesses?
Pharmacy Technician
After applying online and getting a referral from a current pharmacist, I was called for an initial interview after more than four weeks. The position was offered after a total of three interviews. The first interview was a quick phone call where the interviewer asked about my experience. Once I passed that, she scheduled an in-person meeting. This was followed by two interviews on the same day: first with a friendly HR representative, and then a separate interview with the Pharmacy Manager. I also had to take a pharmaceutical math test, but that was during orientation after I had already accepted the job.
- Can you introduce yourself?
- Can you explain how your skills, talents, strengths, and past experiences match the requirements of the job?
- In what ways do your professional aspirations connect with NYPH's vision?
Pharmacist
The hiring process involved an initial HR phone screen, followed by a behavioral interview with HR, and then a final interview with the manager. The interviews were completed within two weeks, and the process felt smooth and manageable. About a month after passing background and medical checks, I received the offer.
