The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in Oct 2010
Interview
I was contacted for an interview via The Fall Recruiting Consortium through my college. I had a fairly casual interview. It began with the recruiter explaining the history of MSKCC and providing more information about the Session Assistant position. After that, he then asked fairly basic interview questions, such as "Why did you choose your major" or "What role do you take on in group situations?". He then asked behavioral based questions. The interviewer was very friendly and not intimidating at all. I guess the only bad thing about this process is that I had to wait 5 months to schedule a final interview because they usually like to make final decisions closer to college grads' graduation date. The final interview consisted of a typing test, transcription test, a brief meeting with the HR representative, and two interviews with the hiring managers. MSKCC emphasizes teamwork so be prepared to have two managers conducting the interview together. They asked a fairly long list of questions, but they were standard interview questions. Everyone that I met was extremely professional and friendly.

I applied online. I interviewed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Interview
A couple of weeks after I applied for the position, I received an email from a recruiter asking to set up a phone interview. The phone interview lasted about 10 min and she asked very basic questions just to get to know me. We proceeded to set up a video interview for later in the week. The video interview was with the recruiter where she went on to ask me questions about the company and also situational questions from past experiences. For the situational questions I was required to answer using the STAR method (important to know what this is). The video interview lasted around 30 min and once it was complete, we set up a date for me to come in and meet with two Administrative Coordinators and the recruiter, herself. I met with the recruiter first and it was a very brief conversation. She provided me with helpful interview tips that will help make the interview go a lot smoother. The interview with the Administrative Coordinators lasted around an hour and I had to responded using the STAR method. That interview went well and the following week I met with the Doctor I would be working for. The Doctor asked me questions to get to know me and was very nice.
Everyone in this hospital is very nice and wants to make sure you are a good fit for the company. The questions were about the hospital, past experiences, and myself. It is important to know what the STAR method is in advance to help you when it comes time to interview.
