I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Quest Diagnostics (Pittsburgh, PA) in Jan 2025
Interview
The interview was pretty simple. My interview with the hiring manager was great. She’s very conversational and made me feel as if she was really rooting for me. I first had an interview with some guy who didn’t really ask me any personal interview questions before I spoke with her. She did ask some of the typical tell me about yourself and career aspirations questions but it was super easy to talk to he. She also went over the position and company benefits in great detail.
Pretty simple, the basic STAR format questions, if that.
Most positions are third shift, so they'll want to ensure that you're comfortable with the time and commute.
But once you pass the typing test , your pretty in.
