Interview
I applied online, and received an email 2 days later telling me that they had run out of interview slots and that my application was to be put on the reserve list. Just over 1 week later, I was invited to an interview and had to book my time online.
The interview then followed and was your standard face-to-face interview with 2 of the clinic managers and was very relaxed.

Interview
It was a phone interview with a manager from a different hub. However he asked me a lot of questions and definitely made me feel very relaxed during the interview by giving me verbal cues of agreement when he agreed with me. It felt casual, like a conversation with a friend but with formal language. The questions themselves were quite difficult but thankfully I had experience in all those scenarios and was able to answer the questions honestly.
