I interviewed at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Interview
Frustratingly long process (3 months+). After 3 months and after completing an HR screen, hiring manager interview and onsite interview, I chose not to proceed with the additional rounds of interviews they wanted to add for a position that didn't necessarily require any experience. Between interviews, there were very long waiting periods with 0 communication. However, whenever I interacted with or heard from anyone, they were very pleasant/personable. On the whole, I didn't feel the hiring process was transparent (added additional interview steps/tasks with little notice), efficient or respectful of candidates' time. I was SO excited about the position/opportunity to work at St. Jude, but the hiring process turned me off. I know some places have long interview processes with even more rounds, but I think that might make more sense for higher level positions with leadership responsibilities.
