Expect your first interview to be a case study without having time to prepare. "There are no wrong answers".. proceeds to tell you that your answer is wrong. No status updates on jobs either. If I hadn't reached out I would've been left hanging.
I applied online. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente
Interview
The interview process is extremely drawn out for some positions. I applied online for a position, went through a HR phone screen, an hour long phone interview with a manager and direct report, and then a 1.5 hour in-person interview on-site with a skills test.
After the in-person interview, I was told that I would likely have to come in for another interview with a panel of my future co-workers. For a entry/mid-level position, this amount of interviewing seems excessive.
As of today, it has been four months since the first phone interview and I have not heard whether the position is still open, if I am still a candidate, or where I am in the process. Kaiser could do a much better job communicating and streamlining the hiring process in order to keep well-qualified candidates interested.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2022
Interview
Interviews were lengthy. I interviewed with four people. Questions were centered on prior projects, education and skill sets. I discussed projects and provided samples of my work. They did ask fir me to compete a task but gave me a very short time to complete it (while I was employed at another job.)
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente in Feb 2022
Interview
Very communicative interviewers who cared a lot about the work place fit in addition to the skills you bring. The teams seemed somewhat disjointed but there were a lot of benefits and good projects they were excited to share. Unfortunately the HR process is tedious and I didn’t get follow up after an interview or they hired internally. It seemed a bit unprofessional.
