I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Banfield Pet Hospital (Portland, OR) in Apr 2015
Interview
Two weeks after application got a call and did a phone interview on the spot. Asked experience in vet setting and what pay I wanted. I said $12. They said they usually start $11-12 but that with my experience I should be closer to $12. They Called back and set up a time for face to face. Went in on Tuesday and was interviewed by 2 practice managers. Then got called back on Wednesday for a working interview on Thursday. Working interview was 1.5 hours and I followed another assistant around and worked with a client. I was mostly there for observation but they did let me restrain when it got busy. Job offered the next day on Friday and they offered me $12. One week wait for background check and went in to do new hire paperwork after that.

I applied online. I interviewed at Banfield Pet Hospital
Interview
The interview was in-person just like regular phone interviews. They first ask you to introduce yourself and describe your experiences. Then, they ask about certain skills like catheter placement, blood draw, and surgery monitoring. I think it lasted about 20-30 minutes.
