Begins with HR process online, then a phone screening from HR and finally a phone interview. From there I was brought in for a panel interview the next week. Usually takes one-two weeks total.

I had 4 different interviews spread out across 3 months. It was a long process with very little information about the next steps or when a decision might be made.

I was contacted by a recruiter a month after applying for the job online. Vanderbilt requests initial video interviews now. I was unable to do the video interview. Per the option in the initial email I received, I requested a phone interview. The recruiter stated that it was not a problem and sent me a link to her calendar. I scheduled an interview about 4 days out. I received a confirmation email. I never received a call for my interview. I waited 20 minutes beyond my interview time, left her a voicemail and sent her an email. The recruiter didn't respond. The following Monday, I sent an email to the general HR mailbox with Vanderbilt located on the careers webpage. I finally get a response from the initial "recruiter" stating that the position is filled. The position is still listed on the site as available. This all transpired within a matter of a few days. What was so hard about shooting me an email before the scheduled time to let me know that? I had to move some things around to make time for a phone interview by the deadline. I forwarded my previous emails to the HR manager and director. No response from them, which is not surprising. I didn't think the "recruiter" had a right to get away with being unprofessional. It's not even about the job. It's about having some common courtesy and respect for my time. She is the one who contacted me for the interview. I believe she just didn't want to be bothered with a phone interview. It's disheartening to be looking for a job, having to deal with employed individuals who aren't even doing their job. Recruiters who don't recruit makes no sense at all.
