      Recruiter Interview

      Nov 5, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Palo Alto, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Stanford University (Palo Alto, CA) in Sep 2021

      Interview

      Stoic and impersonal the manager did not smile and appeared to focus only on one job. The interviewer seemed uninterested in my background and to focus exclusively on experience in healthcare.

      Recruiting Interview

      Mar 21, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Palo Alto, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Stanford University (Palo Alto, CA)

      Interview

      It began with the coordinator reaching out and asking me to answer 5 questions prior to scheduling a phone interview. The initial phone screen was quite pleasant. The interviewer and I had a few things in common and she was very easy to talk to. Mostly behavioral questions. The phone screen lasted about 30-45 minutes. I was then invited for an on-site interview with four different people in their recruiting team. I was to spend one hour with each and then have lunch with the last person for the last hour. I spent one hour with each of them, where I found myself repeating myself as they were all asking me the same questions. I was there for a total of four hours and was not offered any water until it was lunch time. I was annoyed that I had to answer the same questions over and over again with each of the interviewers. The interview process was repetitive and entirely too long for the position I was interviewing for. Pursuant to the interview, I left feeling pretty impartial about how my interview had gone. It's been two weeks and I have not heard back. I expected more from Stanford, considering their reputation. Whether it's a yes or a no, I expect at least that courtesy.
