I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) in Aug 2016
Interview
Talent Acquisition Specialist first introduced me to the position. Asked a few questions and then had me visit my direct supervisors for the position. They were very friendly and welcoming. I realized they do not pass you on to the next meeting with direct supervisors unless you have impressed the Talent Acquisition Specialist. They said the next step will be to meet with a Doctor in the field and then basic HR follow-up.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) in Aug 2018
Interview
I was called about 2 weeks after applying online, and scheduled a phone screen interview. The phone screen took about 10 minutes and I was asked pretty generic questions about my research experience and clinical experience. They then said I would need to come in for 2 more interviews over the next month, which seemed a little excessive.
