The interview process included four virtual rounds covering SQL, data modeling, stakeholder communication, and team collaboration. It was structured, thoughtful, and focused on real-world problem solving, technical skills, and alignment with the team’s collaborative and healthcare-driven environment.

Question 1
One of the most interesting questions they asked was how I would handle matching patient records across multiple EHR systems — especially when a patient appears under different names or IDs — and how I’d validate that logic.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Shields Health Solutions in Jun 2025
Interview
TLDR; I was transparent that I needed an offer of at least my current salary, which I disclosed, early on. I was dragged through a technical assessment and 6 interviews just to learn that they couldn't match that. They offered $115k+10% bonus.
Internal and external communication were very messy. The interviewing team was not on the same page, and the recruiter could not remember conversations we'd had and did not follow up when she said she would. When I brought this to the team's attention, they questioned my ability to work in a fast-paced environment, as if this is what I could expect working at Shields.
