First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Behavior and Education.
Paraprofessional
The interview was okay, but I didn't hear back from them at all afterwards. It's a company's job to follow up with candidates. I spent time preparing and talking about my skills, so they should at least send an email saying I didn't get the job.
- How would you keep a 6-year-old entertained using only a set of keys and a bin?
Behavior Consultant
It was super chill. First, I spoke with HR who then sent me over to the program director (PD). We had a relaxed chat about my background. Some questions were straightforward, like asking about the age groups I've worked with, while others involved describing my thinking for a situation the PD presented.
- Tell me about your experience working with clients who use a token board.
- Can you describe how you would teach a child, who has no prior experience, to use a token board?
Program Manager
The interview took about one hour and 30 minutes. The company seemed great with shared values, and they said I was a good fit. The clinical director said she was confident I got the job and to expect a callback. After two days without hearing back, I emailed HR. On the 4th day, they told me they hired someone else. I'm upset they wasted my time if I wasn't going to be selected. I had to pay a late fee at my son's day care because the interview ran over. My advice is to plan for a long interview and ask what they're looking for upfront. I'm disappointed and have no words. I was excited because I thought it went well and I was ready for an offer, but they went with someone else. They suggested I re-apply if the position opens again.
- How would you assess a problem behavior if in-person observation isn't possible and telehealth observation isn't accurate?
Behavior Therapist
I applied online and heard back from the NLA clinical director within a few days. She was really friendly and asked thorough, clear questions. I was nervous, but she made me feel comfortable and even helped me when I was stuck. It felt like they wanted me to succeed! Even with my years of experience, I should have reviewed the proper terminology. The whole thing took about a month because the interview was during my hectic wedding planning, and I hadn't moved to LA yet. The HR director was understanding and let me postpone the interview until after I got married.
- Could you describe the functions of behavior?
