The interview process was done by phone with several people from the department. I was given an offer via email, which I accepted, and went to work immediately after I left school. They did a great job of acquainting me with the work quickly and I was given plenty of guidance.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview didn't throw any curve balls. just the basic questions about leadership and stuff from my resume. The most difficult question was probably how I would contribute to the team, so definitely do your research before applying. None of the crazy questions you have heard of, like the hypothetical questions or fake scenario questions. All straightforward pretty much.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Varian Medical Systems (New York, NY) in Apr 2024
Interview
In the first round, I had an interview with a recruiter who asked me about general information such as my location, resident status, salary aspirations, and why I wanted to work for Varian. I also had to share a challenging situation from my previous job and if I had any questions for them.
The second interview was with the team manager. She asked me to walk her through my resume, questioned me about a challenging situation from my previous job, and inquired about my knowledge of cultural awareness.
The third round was with two senior managers. They also asked me to walk them through my resume and questioned where I saw myself in 5 and 10 years from now. They also asked how I dealt with communication issues and if my skills were transferable to this new industry based on my background.
At first, I received a rejection letter, but after a week, they sent me an offer. I accepted it, and now I'm working on my background check. I'm really happy that I got my dream internship.
