video interview with two managers, basic questions (Tell me about yourself, past experiences, strengths/weaknesses, handling conflict, why us, why ICYU, etc), overall friendly people, short interview no longer than 20 minutes

Never spoke to a recruiter. The unit’s manager emailed me and I ended up interviewing with two managers. The interview lasted about 10 mins. Either they were really desperate or they already knew they were going to hire someone else since they only asked me about two questions. I found out who the recruiter was for the job and I emailed them after not hearing anything for two weeks. Instead of replying, they sent me a link so I could enter my references, which I assume was a mistake or at least a waste of my time. Then they didn’t hire me. Awkward, unpleasant, waste of time. Nothing like other hospitals that care about their applicants. Another hospital in LA that is also ranked #1 in California actually treats their applicants a lot better instead of acting like they’re doing you a big favor because of the hospital’s name.

Even though this was an interview for an experienced nurse, it felt like a new grad nurse interview. All questions asked were from a template they said and the questions were identical to some new grad questions. Panel of 6 that did not even read my resume before my interview, and it felt more like an interrogation instead of a job interview, Very cold and a panel of nurse managers going through the motions, not even asking the candidates to tell them about themselves.
