I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cencora (Houston, TX) in Nov 2022
Interview
The entire interview process took one week. First was a phone interview with HR lasted about 30 mins which consisted of me walking through my experience. The second interview was 90 minutes, I had to present virtual powerpoint presentation explaining topics like Medicare parts A-D, a case study, and the prior authorization denial process. After my second interview, I received an offer the next day.
The first two interviews went well and the interviewers were personable. However, the third interview with the hiring director was a waste of time. The director was late to the Zoom meeting and seemed disinterested.

Interview
After having a phone interview with the recruiter, I had a phone interview with the hiring manager. However, I found that the questions asked by the hiring manager and the requirements mentioned did not align with the job description in the job posting. The hiring manager focused extensively on reimbursement and copay programs during the interview.
