Cancer Treatment Centers of America Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Inefficient and lengthy.

Negotiation Details – Drawn out with me doing all the follow-up.

Interview Details – I Had to complete an application, and I waited thirty minutes afterwards to be interviewed by a really young and pleasant recruiter (27 yo), and fifteen minutes after my first interview, I was interviewed by the hiring manager.

Interview Details – Very professional and transparent. Rightfully proud off their services and facilities. Positive energy flowed throughout the staff, management, patients and even their valet parking staff. Phone interviews were relaxed and professional. Follow-up timely. The on-site tour really helped to gain perspective of CTCA's approach to healing the mind and spirit in addition to the medicine and treatments. Their cafeteria was first class and their belief of attention to nutrition first was eye-opening and simple.

Interview Details – Initial phone interview with HR followed by in person interview with hiring manager. They requested samples of my work but never reviewed them. The face-to-face interview is followed by a TalentSource personality interview (psych) exam. I recommend researching TalentChoice before scheduling.

Interview Details – This may have been the worst interview experience I have ever had. First of all, the HR manager who worked with me did not respond to e-mails and took over a week to return phone calls. Finally, though, I was invited to meet both the aforementioned HR manager and the hiring manager. I arrive and talk for about 20 minutes with the HR manager, most of which is spent with her talking about their benefits package.

Only when this conversation ended was I told that the hiring manager would not be available to meet with me, that she had been called to an off-site meeting. When I asked if we could set another time for me to come back, she said she would get back to me. Well, she never did. I followed up by email and phone and never heard back from her or the hiring manager again. Not even an automated email to let me know they didn't want to hire me.

I understand that things come up and schedules change, but how hard would it have been to call me in advance to tell me that I'd need to reschedule part of all of the interview? Or to reschedule me when I was there? And it is beyond rude to not give any kind of a response after I take the time to prepare for the interview and then actually interview.

Interview Details – Initial interview with one of the recruiters lasted only about 30 minutes, on a Monday. Received a call the next day to set up a 1-on-1 interview with the department director for the following morning. The director was very pleasant and personable. The interview felt more like a discussion of my background and qualifications and how it would fit in with the company and their goals. We talked about the requirements of the position and a more in-depth description of the role, than the intial overview from the posting. Received a call the following Wednesday to setup an interview with the AVP. Interviewed with the AVP that Friday. Interview felt more like an opportunity to get to know one another than an in-depth interview. We briefly spoke about my background, and had a back and fourth discussion about the company, corporate strategy, future growth opportunities, and the product development process.

Received a call from the recruiter the Friday after that informing me that an internal candidate had materialized and that I would not be continuing on in the process.

Interview Details – Both one-on-one and phone interview

Interview Details – Applied online. Did a phone interview first, then went in for a 1 on 1 interview. Next, I met with the head of the department for a second 1 on 1. Finally, I was asked for references (5 total. 2 previous managers), then offered a position.

Negotiation Details – There was no negotiation. I felt I was offered a fair wage based on the job and my experience.

Interview Details – I met with two people from HR. The first was in charge of recruitment; she was professional but did come across as somewhat pretentious. She gave me incorrect information about the job duties of the position. She made the position sound like a high-level strategic management role, when in actuality it was a job that required a lot of paperwork and administration of little tasks. The second woman in HR was quite rude. During the entire interview, she glared at me as if she did not believe anything that was coming out of my mouth. When I told her my understanding of the role, she told me I was completely wrong and had a frown on her face (I told her what I had been told by the recruiter). It was clear after 10 minutes that she did not like me, even though I have a stellar educational background and over 10 years of experience in my field. After 2 weeks of not hearing anything, the recruiter left me a voice mail that I was no longer being considered for the role. I was not interested anyway. Every time I see a CTCA commercial now, I have a negative impression and I change the channel.
