Cardinal Health runs a short, recruiter-led loop that is nearly identical across its business lines: online application, recruiter screen, then one or two interviews with the hiring team before an offer. The richest public vein is its Philippines shared-services arm (Cardinal Health International Philippines, BGC), where candidates for customer-service and back-office roles describe an online assessment (Harver) followed by an initial Zoom interview and a final, often panel, interview; pay and shift/hybrid terms are usually disclosed at the initial stage. US distribution-center hiring is run as walk-in "interview day" events with a 30-minute conversation with an onsite supervisor, and pharmacy internships are resume-driven conversations about interest in nuclear practice.

Cardinal Health publishes a six-step candidate journey: (1) online application (all candidates must apply online), (2) application review by recruiters, who also source candidates directly, (3) a recruiter phone screen about the candidate's experience and the role, (4) formal interviews with the hiring team, virtual or onsite depending on the position, (5) offer, which includes reviewing and signing the company's Conflicts of Interest disclosure, and (6) pre-employment checks and onboarding. Its careers site separately advertises warehouse hiring events: candidates apply online, a recruiter schedules a 30-minute interview with an onsite supervisor at the distribution center, and walk-ins are accepted during the event (https://jobs.cardinalhealth.com/events/eventdetails/a13a6166-db84-48ff-ade1-56898b58b05f?eventTitle=warehouse-associate-interview-day).

Interview with the nuclear pharmacy siteHiring manager
A first-year pharmacy student interviewed for a summer nuclear pharmacy internship. The interviewers opened on the resume, then probed how comfortable the candidate is working in a traditional lab setting and how genuinely interested they are in nuclear practice; the rest of the time was driven by the candidate's own questions, which they used to signal a long-term interest in the field.
