Interview
You will be sent an email for a virtual interview called HireVue in replacement of the traditional interview. When I read the email about it being virtual the first time I thought that this may be a pre-screening before an actual interview. But I re-read the email again that itself was the interview.

I applied online. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente
Interview
It was approximately an 30 minute interview with one of the department managers. All of my questions were scenario critical thinking questions. The only question that wasn’t behavioral was the standard “tell me about yourself.” Overall it wasn’t a bad interview but I’ve had 6 years of working in the ER so I felt prepared for scenario questions on topics of who to triage first and based on these symptoms what do you expect a doctor to order.
