Tips for Allergy Clinic Interview?!

Published

I am trying to land a job at an allergy clinic for a phone triage/insurance information position. What kinds of things should I study up on for the interview? I have never worked in this role before (I've only done inpatient care and home care).

Don't sneeze! (only kidding!)

I can't imagine what you should study about; I am certain they will provide you with some training.

Study what you can re allergies I suppose (sounds obvious but many people don't even seem to do that b4 an interview). Also try to find out more about the company - is there a website you can view?

When you have the interview try to be relaxed (not slouched), and I always find that if you get on a personal level with the interviewers and make them laugh, it breaks the ice and the interview is easier.

Sorry just brainstorming - hope this helps a bit!

This goes for all interviews, but is especially important for an allergy clinic... DO NOT smell of tobacco smoke, perfume/cologne, strongly scented deodorant, etc. They may ask what you think of working in an allergy clinic and/or why you want to. I worked at a different specialty clinic a couple years ago and they asked me those questions. They did not expect me to know a ton about the specialty, but everybody is different. Maybe do some basic online research about allergies: common types, triggers, basic treatment. Hope it goes well.
