I applied through other source. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Kindred Hospitals (Seattle, WA) in Jun 2023
The position was at Kindred Hospital First Hill Seattle. I received a call from Jaushan, a current critical care PA working directly with the director Dr. Alyraba. I don't recall applying to the job directly so I suspect my resume was pulled from a job board website. We briefly discussed my experience and she gave an overview of the position. Starting salary was $150,000 per year, 10 days PTO. Hours are 11 am - 7 pm weekdays with some flexibility on arrival time. Census is high at 25-30 pts a day but they admit to minimal documentation and insist it is manageable. I interviewed on site 2 days later but was asked to call the morning of to remind since "there isn't any admin present to handle scheduling." Once I arrived, the front desk was clearly confused about who I was there to meet and spent 20 mins trying to find the person I spoke with on the phone, who was in a meeting at the time. Finally once I did interview, The providers interrupted me to take a few calls during the interview. I was also told that because I am a new grad the salary expectation is $140k instead, although they knew my qualifications when she reached out to me. I was told to email her in a few days if I want to job, but I didn't feel respected during the interview process so will no be pursuing further. I left with the impression that they were just filling seats.

Complete application, await recruiting call, manager eventually calls you. Phone interview then in person. The questions were very typical of any physical therapy interview. They did get back to me with an offer that was on par in terms of salary but I did decline offer
- It was okay, typical and short
