The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (Oakland, CA) in May 2010
Interview
There was a panel of interviewers who were all involved in the department, including the hiring manager as well as workers in the department. The questions asked were all behavior based questions...give us an example of a time you acted and something did not go right. What happened/ What would you do differently if it happened again? How would you approach a project of getting a new initiative started? How involved would you be in the initiative? What would you be looking for as the project progressed? Describe how you would handle a situation if you found employees not completing their work and hiding it? What if there was one employee doing this? What if there were ten employees and you couldn't keep up with the work if you fired them?
Interview questions [4]
Question 1
Describe a situation from your recent work experience which produced a high level of stress for you. How did you cope? What was the result?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente in May 2011
Interview
Probably one of the worst interviews I have been on. I had 3 phone interviews and then was asked to come to Rockville to meet the SVP. First of all, I had to pay out of pocket for my hotel and get reimbursed, which was no easy feat. Then i was given almost no direction on where to go. Then I meet with a national VP who is interviewing me for another job. Then I meet with the SVP who clearly didn't like my credentials. Poor screening and little HR involvment.
The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (Oakland, CA) in Feb 2010
Interview
I was referred in by a friend who works at Kaiser. Got an initial phone screening interview from HR, then a follow up call to schedule with the hiring manager. Met in person for the initial interview with the hiring manager and was asked a series of written questions. It was pretty impersonal. Got the feeling they'd already found their person and were just going through the motions.
