Optum Interviews Employee Reviews

1st interview was 17 years ago. But applying to internal positions and interviewing is really Person to Person having a conversation. Each wanting to know the others background. I love when it can be casual vs the "standard interview questions."

Getting to introduce myself to the rest of the staff.

Learning about the company and the nuances of the markets.

I interviewed early in the pandemic. Everything was in turbulence but the interviewers remained positive

Technology, progress reporting and fast

Interview was great; too bad they painted a rosier picture than what we encountered

Review from Operations Dept

Their friendly approach and welcoming environment.

Very smooth process and dynamic interview process.

Real person interviews and not video interviews

Review from Operations Dept

Thorough with multiple layers and rounds

Timely communication on next steps

the patience and good communicating skills of the interviewer

It was held through zoom

Interview panel asked creative questions & tried to gauge experience & thought leadership

For the most part, everything was done via video chat

Hiring manager very outgoing, and open to questions.

all aspects of interview were good

Interviewers were very proffessional. They made me comfortable during the entire interview process, yet asked some of the most difficult questions to understand what I have really worked upon

Review from Product Dept

The process is extremely long.

There really wasn't much interview process as I was chosen after being a contractor for 2 years.

Actually post all job openings and build up existing leaders instead of always hiring outside

Faster response time and be more transparent about the job

The interview process was too long. One of the people that was supposed to interview was laid off on the day of my interview.

Review from Operations Dept

Recruiters should contact the candidate if they are not going to show up for an interview
