Interview
Its best to know someone that works in the company so they can refer you. Memorial relies on referral when considering candidates for positions. And also do your research about the position first. After i applied, a friend of mine took my resume and sent it to the recruiter. Then i got a call after completing the required assessment. Then a few days after, i got a call for an interview. On that same day, i did 3 interviews. Then by the end of the week, i got a call that they would like to offer me a position.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) in Aug 2018
Interview
I was called about 2 weeks after applying online, and scheduled a phone screen interview. The phone screen took about 10 minutes and I was asked pretty generic questions about my research experience and clinical experience. They then said I would need to come in for 2 more interviews over the next month, which seemed a little excessive.
