The interview process was pretty quick and easy. The team was very approachable and mostly wanted to know if you were interested in the work and what was expected of you.

I spoke with the general manager a couple of times. They were pretty straightforward, focusing more on understanding my personality and values instead of technical skills or experience, which was nice.

I applied for one job but they thought I would be a better fit for the Client Experience Administrator role. I was hesitant because it said admin in the title and I didn't want to do boring paper-pushing. After some research, it seemed like a good fit. They told me I had to interview in the next couple of days, so I had to take time off work. I was scheduled for 1 PM and it was supposed to take an hour, but the hiring manager didn't show up until 2 PM and the interview only lasted 30 minutes. It was a simple conversation. The main issue was the long wait time without any notice. This made me question how they treat their clients if this is how they treat employees. I decided it wasn't a good fit for me.

The interview process was good, and we spent a good chunk of time during the school year practicing the outreach skills we'd use in the summer internship. It was pretty straightforward and not overly difficult. The interviewers were really knowledgeable and took the time to answer all our questions thoroughly.
