They usually call and perform a quick phone interview. As long as you are competent and able to hold animals, you will get an in person interview. They bring you in, and you sit down with the Practice Manager, who will proceed to ask you a series of pre-written questions prepared by the company. You will then get a hospital tour and they will let you watch some things and meet the staff working that day.
