Recorded interview round through a link. Received many automatic mail updates throughout the process; Not sure if recordings were looked at afterwards. Video round has basic questions, the software is not very easy to use and makes you nervous.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Intermountain Health
Interview
Applied online.
Got a prompt to perform an automated hirevue interview.
Eventually got a phone call scheduling a mid-week phone call. Two days before, they dropped a programming assignment, saying we want you to complete this in time for your interview, we expect it to take eight hours (the implication being: "we expect you to drop everything to complete this"). The task is simple enough, but riddled with intentional typos. I came to my senses, and realized how ridiculous this was and withdrew my application.
Overall, it felt more like a hazing ritual, i.e. you must jump through hoops to demonstrate you are sufficiently invested. It did not feel like both parties were feeling each other out. The few times I did interact with a person, it was to schedule anything.
At no point did I have the opportunity to ask questions about the role, nor did anyone actually go to the effort of talking to me apart from assigning work.

Please, complete this task in two (week) days. We expect it will take 8 hours.
1:1. 2-3 questions all technical related, then a medical data "case study" which involved a modeling problem with a dataset exhibiting colinearity. Case study was in R. Because my background was in Python and not R, the interviewee would type code in as I explained it.
