I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Healogics in Jan 2012
Interview
Online applications that don't get a call back unless you have specific experience within the "X years of hospital management experience" the recruiters look for so they don't get in trouble. No ability to think outside the box as in "Candidate's successful record and experience in Y industry can be transferred to Z industry". The hiring managers are much better at understanding this, but the HR phone screeners don't because they don't usually actually work in a healthcare setting or with most of the people they hire. So if you don't have the cookie cutter resume they're screening for, you likely won't get a phone interview. I had to get creative (yet remained truthful and honest), by contacting the hiring manager directly who then went and told HR to interview me after they passed me up. Once I got in the system, I cruised through the interview process b/c the hiring manager actually knows what they want. I'm sure a ton of candidates who could have been top performers don't even get a call back b/c they lack the cookie cutter resume. So you kind of need to fight for visibility and try to bypass HR if possible. Once the hiring manager has you on their radar (use LinkedIn or other creative methods to get in touch), they can specifically ask HR to get you moving in the pipeline for an actual face-to-face evaluation.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you handle "serving two masters" (i.e. the company and the hospital client)?
Mainly were textbook leadership questions that the HR recruiter is just asking and typing into the document to fwd on.
Once you get past the HR recruiters, then hiring manager (and maybe you'll interview w/ the hospital client as well) will likely ask you much more pertinent questions to the job, such as "how do you (or tell me about a time when you) had to act independently without a lot of direct supervision, yet still deliver". Also, they may ask about your clinical experience if you come from outside the field, or marketing/business development/financial management background/client management experience if you come from outside of those disciplines.
A lot of hiring managers focus on questions like "Tell me about a time you dealt with (or how would you deal with) a difficult/stubborn physician who was doing something problematic?" or questions along those lines. This is a big issue with the company so the good hiring managers will at least attempt to address them in the interview (though it's hard to tell what someone would do just based on their answer to a question in a face-to-face interview setting).
At some point, for management positions, there were also personality profile/leadership style questions that you do online (quite long). These are mainly to defend against lawsuits, as most of the time by the time you get to taking those, the hiring manager has already made up their mind.
I applied online. I interviewed at Healogics (Las Vegas, NV)
Interview
Company sent me an email with date and time of interview. First interview was a phone interview. I was contacted by the corporate headquarters in Florida. The person was kind. You could hear her typing my answers. They were not able to answer any questions that I had, stating I would have to ask the hiring manager.
Very pleasant interview, felt like a casual conversation. I felt comfortable and confident that the interview went well. I hope to move forward with this company. Thank you for your time.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Healogics (Boston, MA) in Dec 2021
Interview
Very lengthy, 2 phone interviews, 3 virtual interviews, and one in person at the Hospital with 5 people. It was weeks in between each interview and compensation was not discussed until the actual job was offered.
