I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Interview
Had someone submit my resume to HR for the position. Was contacted by HR to schedule an onsite interview a few weeks later. First interviewed with HR, then some prior Session Assistants, and finally, with the Administrative Manager. I was asked for a lot of SPECIFIC examples such as a time I had to work in a group and the outcome, a time I made a mistake and how I approached it, etc. Best advice is to make sure you have specific examples and stories prepared ahead of time.
