Question 1
Why do you want to work at Barnes-Jewish Hospital?
The recruiter had to reschedule the virtual interview three times, one on the day of the interview. The day of the 3rd rescheduled interview, I contacted both the interviewer and recruiter with no response. No one ever showed up on the virtual call. Very unprofessional and a waste of my time.
There was a three interview process step for me. Phone interview, face to face, and then a peer interview. Took a long time to hear back from Human Resources .
