Tell us about your upcoming graduation and/or license in your cover letter. For many roles, we require licensure before we can consider you for a position, but other roles have different requirements or timelines.

- Experience and skills needed for the position

That means a recruiter is evaluating you and other candidates. After the evaluation, we invite the top applicants to the next step in the hiring process.
What can I expect during my interview?
You’ll begin with a 30-to-60-minute phone interview with a recruiter. You’ll talk about your qualifications and work experience and answer a few behavioral-based questions about the job. The next step is a 60-minute interview with the hiring leader.
I had my interview. When should I follow up?
Your interviewer likely shared the timeline for next steps. Please be patient until that date passes before following up with Recruitment. If you haven't heard back by the deadline shared with you, feel free to reach out.
