      Medical Assistant Interview

      Apr 21, 2026
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Sacramento, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sutter Health (Sacramento, CA) in Mar 2026

      Interview

      It was stacked. I was put in front of a panel of 6 people including an area manager who walked in late. She went on to query me about a gap in my resume, and later more or less stated to me that I was unqualified, even though Sutter just hired multiple people with my exact credentials and exact job and significantly less experience in that job. Each member of the panel otherwise got to dissect my life. It was extremely uncomfortable but I am outgoing enough, and I thought the engagement was really positive. It went nowhere. The experience motivated me to apply and get hired out of state where employers still have a pulse.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Sutter Health

      Interview

      Interviewer called me and said that I needed a certification for the position, but the website said otherwise. She made accusations that I don't read job descriptions and would not let me speak.
