Interview was scheduled by phone at a time that was convenient for them. The interviewers (there were two) spent the first part of the interview picking at my resume. I took that in stride, because I saw it as free-of-charge feedback, and who doesn't want that? They spent the rest of it asking questions with a tone that suggested that I really should beg for inclusion at this "number one" institution (they made sure to throw that in a few times, too). I am entry-level for the job I interviewed for, but I am NOT entry level professionally. I expected to have to explain my transition, but....goodness. I'm sorry I felt the need to go in a different direction people! I asked questions at the end about the interviewers (because I had looked them up prior) to see how they got where they had gotten and where they saw the position and the specific field going. I was not impressed with their answers. They stated that the next step would be to come in person, but they didn't say whether it would be a one on one plan, or a panel. I didn't ask. I got off the phone with mixed feelings and a feeling this wasn't going to work out, though I was still a little optimistic. To be honest, I felt a little disrespected and picked apart. To add insult to injury, it took them ONE MONTH to publicly state (because I am sure they decided quickly) that I didn't get the job, and then they didn't even have the courtesy to send a direct "thanks but no thanks" email (and yes, I think those are good, because SOMEONE sent that). Rather, I had to make it a point to login to my account and see what the updated status was -- THAT is how I confirmed I was out (I mentioned the one month, correct?). I had applied for a different position way after interviewing for this one -- I applied for this new one in April -- and miraculously, they knew just a few days afterwards that they didn't want me for that either. That's fine. I don't expect to get every job I apply for. I just expected far more...everything from NYP. No. I'm not at all impressed with this "number one" hospital, and how I was treated. I think I'll go be "number one" elsewhere.
