It was a pretty standard interview, really friendly and stress-free. They have walk-in interviews on certain days, which is what I did. It was super quick, and I heard back about the offer the same day, I think.

The process was friendly and welcoming. It began with a virtual panel interview. Since I applied to multiple departments, they gathered all the managers from those departments for a single panel session, which I appreciated as it meant I wouldn't have to interview separately for each.

Confirmed questions1 question

They made me think hard and figure stuff out, and you could tell they understood the tough parts of the job. It felt super relevant and kept me interested because the interviewers knew what they were talking about regarding this specialty.
