Presentation Behavioral

There were 2 stages in the interview process. First, I had to do a PowerPoint presentation on a clinical topic. It lasted about 45 minutes to an hour and required video. The interviewers were friendly and respectful. They answered all my questions and defined expectations. Then, there was a recruiter call.

Behavioral

Started with a regular call with HR, then one with the hiring manager. Didn't feel like the right fit and got lost in the process, so I went after a different role because I want to make an impact.
