Interview
The first interview was a brief phone interview with HR. The second interview was done remotely over Zoom meeting. The interview had a group panel of 3 and I was supposed to have a secondary interview (back to back) but the second group wasn't there or was too busy. This was an extremely easy interview. I could have aced this straight out of high school. I sent an email to the HR person a week later for an update and got a rejection email minutes later. Not sure how I could have done "better", but I wish Centene the best.
