About the Recruitment Process

Selection takes place in two stages. The first selection is made by recruiters in the HR department who invite candidates for a phone interview. After that, the recruiting manager makes a second selection of applicants and invites them for an interview at the clinic.

We use competency-based interviews, which means that answers to questions should be based on actual situations. It is important that you describe as concrete situations as possible and try to avoid generalizing answers – this is so we can understand the situation, why you acted as you did, and what the outcome was.
