I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UPMC (Pittsburgh, PA) in May 2010
Interview
I knew a friend who put me in contact with a Hiring personnel. I had to send in an online application as well. I was asked for an interview. The first interview and the second interview to switch positions were both very informal. I feel as though I was only able to gain an interview because I knew someone within the company. I have been in the anonymous pool of online interview candidates for this company and they will rarely even notify you if your application was received and is being reviewed or not.
First you do a talk interview and if it goes well, you will be asked to shadow a specific unit that you are applying to - the shadow is part of the interview so how you interact with environment will be taken into account
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UPMC (Pittsburgh, PA) in June 2022
Interview
Standard phone interview/screening; they asked about my education and background, interest in the field, etc. 2nd interview was also pretty standard. Then an hour or so of shadowing one of the long time MTs. Mine didn't interact with me a whole lot so it got a little boring, but depending on who you shadow with and what the patients are like at the time, it could be really interesting! This MT will report back if you engaged with patients (a positive if at an appropriate time), asked questions, etc.. So don't forget that this is part of the interview as well. Then a quick follow up with the unit director before leaving. I was called with an offer by the end of the week.

I applied through other source. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at UPMC (Pittsburgh, PA) in Oct 2019
Interview
Interviewed by three unit directors (one is not director) separately a day. Each gave a tour around the unit before asking questions. All very friendly and nice and easy to talk to, but could tell that I was not one director's first choice when giving a tour.
