They rejected me for asking for too much money when what I asked for was within the range they posted. This leads me to believe that they want to attract qualified talent without paying them appropriately.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They didn't ask me anything because I didn't get this far.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HCA Healthcare (Houston, TX) in May 2023
Interview
The recruiter had lack of timeliness. They never called me on the scheduled day and time, and I had to follow up. I finally talked to the recruiter and moved to the next step. I had 3 interviews, just for them to tell me they want a more "qualified candidate." They could've known that from the first interview, instead of wasting my time. In fact, how I found out was they cancelled my FOURTH interview without saying anything, and then at the end of that day, they let me know they want someone more qualified. I can tell they are understaffed, and they are just EXTREMELY unorganized, just from these interviews.

Question 1
Name a time you faced a difficulty, and how you overcame it.
Phone screen with corporate recruiter, interview with leadership team on-site at facility, phone interview with separate HR leader (in that order as three separate components). The process was a bit long.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at HCA Healthcare in Mar 2024
Interview
This is not an employer you want to work for. I was excited to be considered for a role but am now appalled at the lack of professionalism of the team, respect for candidates, and the recruitment process or lack thereof. I had four interviews with a total of 10-12 people. At my final interview (on site), only 2 of the 4 people showed up on time. I followed up and thanked each of them, but have been ghosted since my in-person interview a month ago. This is not a "best employer" or a team that "shows up." The nicest possible way I can say how I feel is that I'm grateful I did not receive an offer since the way employers treat candidates mirrors the way they treat employees.
