I did a phone interview first. After that, I was called in for a face-to-face interview. They gave me a written questionnaire with about 8 questions. Then, I met with some supervisors in the conference room and they asked about 25 questions, mostly scenario-based. The salary offer wasn't enough and HR wouldn't negotiate.

Behavioral

I only had one interview, and it went pretty well. Things at UCLA always seem to take forever, and the whole process dragged out for two whole months from when I first got in touch. I was also told something different about the job than what it actually was, they said I'd be able to give feedback to help the department I'd be working for. But when I started, it was more like an assembly line, all about rushing to get stuff done instead of being able to figure out problems.

I applied internally and it was pretty quick since they needed someone for this division ASAP. I met with the supervisor and the medical doctors I would be assisting. They also showed me the office space where I'll be working. A key aspect they focused on was familiarity with UC Policy, and having a referral was a big plus.
