I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (Sacramento, CA) in Apr 2015
Interview
I passed pharmacy technician exam and typing test. Then they did screening questions on the phone. After that they invited me to interview. Interview went well. Now I am waiting my job offering from them. Amen.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself
Why do you want to work at Kaiser
What did you achieve in your past coursework in college?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (Sacramento, CA) in Apr 2015
Interview
Many people interviewing for one job but it was just one on one. Very easy interview was expecting more technical questions like drug names and other pharmacy related questions but was nothing like that. All the questions were just situational questions like how you react to this or that. Really nice people.

Question 1
What was one time you made a mistake and what did you do to fix it
I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kaiser Permanente (San Rafael, CA) in Jan 2014
Interview
The main reason I am writing this review is because after I was initially rejected as a candidate Kaiser San Rafael is so disorganized they mistakenly called me back for an interview 2 months LATER - completely forgetting (missing) that I had already be previously rejected as a candidate! They didn't even have the balls to call me back to apologize for their error.
Back in January I interviewed multiple times (for multiple RN positions) at Kaiser San Rafael. I was a travel RN for them so was able to be granted an interview just on knowing people. You still need to do a basic skills test online before you are granted an in-person interview. I interviewed 3 times! These were all panel (3 person or more) interviews with a hiring manager, RN staff, and/or nursing administrators. When I say I had multiple interviews it's not a good thing - it was a complete disorganized cluster F and a waste of my time. Kaiser San Rafael in particular is administratively extremely disorganized. Management turnover is epidemic. Managers don't even know what jobs are posted as open because position openings are entirely mitigated by a central brain in Oakland. To top it off, they disrespect candidates by dragging out the process and feel no obligation to tell candidates they will not receive an offer so basically they leave you hanging...
