I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital in Mar 2020
Interview
Submitted an application online, was contacted about a week later. Talked with the recruiter and was told the chief PA would like to interview me and that in the next 2 weeks someone would reach out to schedule it. Nobody did, so I contacted again and then the interview was immediately scheduled. The interview was pleasant, around a one hour conversation with some scenario questions. About two weeks later I hear that they would like to move on to the next step and requested my references. My 5 references respond within around 2 days; however, after that, the recruiter completely ghosted me. Called the recruiter 2 times, sent maybe 2 emails within the span of a month, no reply.
Two other positions within the NYP health system still interviewed me during this wait time, but once they realized I was in the reference phase for another position under NYP they no longer considered me for the other positions.
Very confusing experience and super unprofessional.

Question 1
tell us about a time you had a problem with your supervisor and how you handled it?
With HR, then the team. Fairly smooth. The team was friendly and the questions were fair. The process is really about getting to know you — not just your medical knowledge, but how you think, communicate, and work with others. They’ll ask about your experience, how you handle tough situations, and why you want the role. It’s also a chance for them to see your personality, how you manage stress, and how well you’d fit with their team and culture.

Interview
Interview was held with multiple people. Fairly easy interview. Straightforward. Was referred by someone from within the company so that’s likely the reason why it was so short and not a long interview.
