I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (Oakland, CA) in Oct 2024
Interview
Submitted online application and received an email 12 hrs later asking to submit a supplemental questionnaire (only new info provided was to describe a situation where I advocated for a patient) and do a hirevue recorded interview.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you experienced a breakdown in communication and how it was resolved.
Very straight forward. Wanting to know how you deal with difficult personalities and patients. Usually if you get to the interview stage you already have the job they just want to make sure you will speak to patient safety, evidence based practice and excellent quality of car.

Question 1
Name a time you had a difficult patient and how did you deal with it?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (Oakland, CA) in Aug 2023
Interview
Very different from other new grad residency interviews I've done. They had candidates present a 10-min PowerPoint presentation about their unique nursing journey and asked questions specifically about what you presented, so it was more personal than others.
