Has anyone done their interview yet? What was your experience like? Can you please share?

Hi! I know it's late but maybe if people for later cohorts are looking, basically they have a timeline of events and jumped straight into candidates PowerPoints in a pre randomized order. Many of the interviewees got asked questions on how we care for ourselves, what is the long term goal with Kaiser, describe a time you had a disagreement with a coworker, describe a time when a patient was upset with you, etc alongside clarification questions of what you had already provided :)

 

How does everyone feel after the interviews? Do they judge more on the powerpoint or the way you answer the questions after the powerpoint? Does anyone know how long we have to wait till we find out?

Not sure what they base their decision more. I'm not feeling too confident. The competition is tremendous so I'm not holding my breath. They told us we would hear about mid April. I think there is a timeline on the webminar slides that shows the dates.

does anyone know how many people got an interview?

Same! Competition is fierce in the bay area. I think they are interviewing 100 people for all the sites. But not sure.

They told us that they received 3000 applications, then chose 200 applicants from the snapshot to interview, and they're hiring around 100 new grads for this cohort. They didn't say how many each location would be hiring though.

Does anyone know if your application status changes while waiting for their decisions? Almost April! 

My submission status hasn't been changed but it was updated yesterday. Not sure what it means trying not to overthink.

Hi! From what I know from others who have been accepted/denied in past cohorts, it changes once you get an offer. It will say "hired to position" but it doesn't change while waiting for final decisions 🙂. Hopthat helps. I'm so anxious, this wait was definitely longer than other groups though. 

Thanks for replying guys! Same. My status just updated but still says complete. We'll get to know soon! 😬
