Average Interview
Application

I applied online. I interviewed at Sentara Health (Virginia Beach, VA)

Interview

The phone interview lasted about 30 minutes and went pretty well. The basic interview questions were answered, I shared a few things about myself and learned a few things about the company that excited me. Before the call ended I was asked to send writing samples which I did and to spend time correcting a sample document and answering questions that might pertain to the job. I was advised to send them by a certain date which I did well in advance to never hear anything back, this includes a follow up email asking the interviewee to confirm recipient of the writing samples. I had a good idea that I did not get the position but it was only confirmed when I went to check on the status of my job application and saw "not selected." This is totally fine but it was very rude to not hear back either personally or the generic "we've decided to pursue other candidates" email.

Hello! I have two interviews, one tomorrow & another one on Friday. I'm preparing cause I feel that I'm not very good at them & I hate that. So, I'm researching, taking notes & praying a whole lot lol! Is it okay to refer to notes during an interview? Should I ask interviewer if it's okay? I wanna do my best & feel it'll help some ... a little more confidence I guess!

What is a normal/common resume length for c2c/consultant roles in tech? What about a fte resume? My contract role resume used to be 5-6pages, this was 4years ago, prior to covid. Not sure if this is still a norm. Meanwhile my fte resume is concise, 2pages long. I have 10years of exp for reference.
