I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (Pasadena, CA) in Apr 2014
Interview
The entire process took 3 months from applying. It consisted of a phone screening interview from HR, then an 1:1 with the HR rep. She then sent me off to the hiring manager the next week, which then scheduled a panel interview with fellow PMs, the dept director, and a relevant person in a sister department. After getting the offer, I had to wait 2 weeks to start. Overall the process I expected for a large organization like KP.
Note: Having a concise and printed project portfolio really, really, really helps. That way you get to control the interview direction rather than having the team do it for you.

Question 1
None - my project portfolio answered almost all their questions.
Lengthy process, interviews are friendly but impersonal. Some interviewers seemed inexperienced and strictly followed scripted questions. The process took several months from the first interview to the time I received an offer.

I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente in Jul 2023
Interview
I went through 3 rounds of interviews and they did not get back to me until four months later. Also, before my 2nd interview, the recruiter reached out to me on Sunday to let me know I had to create a detailed presentation a day before my interview. The whole process revealed to me that the organization lacked effective communication.
