      Media Systems Analyst Interview

      Feb 16, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Saint Paul, MN
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mayo Clinic (Saint Paul, MN) in Feb 2022

      Interview

      Applied and received an interview invite about 2 weeks later. First interview was virtual with a panel of 3 people and was mostly for me to tell them about myself and talk about the position a little more and ask questions. Asked why I was interested. The interviewers were all nice and easy to talk to. Was told in the interview that it was a 3-interview process and the third interview would be with HR doing behavioral questions. Was invited for a second interview about 3 days later. I was worried because if the third interview was supposed to be behavioral questions, what would they ask me in the second interview? I prepared as many behavioral answers as possible and also prepared how exactly I would be good for the job based on bullet points in the ad for the job (that was a waste of time). The 2nd interview was also virtual, but with 5 people, 3 of whom were the same people from the first. They asked me again to tell them about myself and I tried to make my scripted schpeel a little different so I didn’t sound repetitive to the original folks. They asked me 9 behavioral questions (and they put the questions in the chat box so I could read them again if needed which was helpful) and 4-5 follow ups. I was given a chance to ask questions at the end and then they told me they’d be making offers the next week (no 3rd interview after all) and they’d let me know. On Wednesday of the next week I got a rejection email. Was difficult to send a thank you letter after the interviews because they were set up by a fantastic admin assistant and contact info for the panel was kept private. I sent the thank you emails to the admin and asked her to forward them. While most of the interviewers were nice, the two new ones in the second interview felt wholly uninterested in my answers. Not that the interview shouldn’t have been hard but it was pretty brutal. I tried to focus on the nicer people, but the reactions from the ones who had no interest in me for sure impacted my confidence. Prepare your face off if you get an interview! Mayo has videos on YouTube on how to prepare (pretty basic but kind of helpful). Don’t answer with something too vague if you can’t think of anything- I did once or twice when the question was very specific to the position and I’m sure that was my downfall. I also wrote a thank you email too quickly/nervously and put the wrong name for one of the interviewers. Was not surprised to receive a rejection.
