Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Outset Medical.
Field Service Engineer
The first step was a quick phone chat to see if I was still interested, check if I had the basic skills, and maybe ask a few initial things about myself. Then, there was a more detailed interview, likely with the hiring manager, digging deeper into my skills, past work, and why I want this job. After that, I had more interviews with various team people and managers. Each of these focused on different things like my technical skills, if I'd fit in with the team, or how I solve problems. The last part, if I got that far, would be a final chat with some higher-ups or people who make the hiring decisions.
