Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at UChicago Medicine.
Research Assistant
They asked me some questions about my previous research work and my understanding of the job. It wasn't super hard, but it was for a summer position, so it might be different for full-time jobs.
- Could you tell me about your past research experiences?
- What do you understand about this role?
Research Assistant
I had already volunteered in the lab where I applied, so all of the interviewers already knew me and how I worked. It was more of a formality, fairly straight forward and informal. Quick and easy.
- What is your reasoning for choosing to work post-graduation rather than pursuing graduate studies immediately?
Research Assistant
I applied online for this job and heard back within a few days. First, I had a phone call with a project manager. Then, about a week later, I went in for a one-on-one interview. I met everyone on the research team, even the person whose role I was applying for. I got to chat with her privately to get the real scoop. They offered me the job three days after the interview. The whole team was super nice and made me feel welcome.
- How comfortable are you discussing sensitive and personal patient data?
