I went through a 5-step interview process, focusing on communication and cultural fit. It was pretty thorough but felt fair. It started with a recruiter chat and ended with a chat with a Senior VP, all done over Zoom or phone.

The hiring experience at Outset was really thorough and gave me a lot of insight. I got to talk with people from both the clinical side and sales, which was great for understanding the company culture and how the teams work together. I'm really glad they had such a detailed interview process because it helped me learn more about myself and figure out if I'd be a good fit. Most of the questions were about me and my skills, but they also threw in some behavioral questions that made the talks more interesting. Talking with people at all levels was the best part and what made me choose Outset over another big medical device company.

HR reached out for an initial screening, and I was told a follow-up with the head of HR would happen later that week, but it didn't. I kept providing my availability. After 4 weeks, I was informed the director would review and call or conduct an in-person interview, which also didn't occur. Following a few more calls to Outset, HR contacted me to say they had chosen another candidate. The entire process took 9 weeks with no interviews beyond the initial screening. It would be good to inform candidates early if they aren't a good fit, and if a candidate is proactive in providing availability, at least consider speaking with them.
