Do you work well with others?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me to go over the order of draw & how to identify a patient.
Very good. Straight forward and professional, did not waste time and had good communication throughout the whole process. Looking forward to actually getting started and working there soon. I have nothing negative to say.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Quest Diagnostics
Interview
Had first and second interview - seemed like everything went well, was told that they would be in touch. Never heard anything back, sent a follow up email - no response. Was completely ghosted.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Quest Diagnostics in Mar 2025
Interview
Attended an open house at one of their branch locations in my local community. As soon as I arrived I was told there were no openings in that branch and the only openings were quite a distance away. I felt misled. The only reason I went to the open house was because that office was within a reasonable driving distance. They should have specified where they were recruiting for. I met with two managers who told me to apply online. What a waste of time it was to go to the open house.

Question 1
Order of draw. What specific tube colors were used for which tests. Why I wanted the job. What interested me about Quest Labs specifically.
