When applying for jobs with the County, there's a lengthy questionnaire, about 8 pages long. Their automated HR system for job postings and applications was really good at sending out automated emails to let me know when my application passed the initial reviews and made it to the interview list.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • One can expect to receive pretty basic interview questions about how you approach problem solving, how you handle relations with team members, how you deal with difficult clients, and why you are interested in the position, etc.
  • And one should expect specific questions depending on the role/responsibilities mentioned in the job ad.

Applied online and got a call back for an interview a few weeks later. When I got there, I had to fill out a background check form and they made a copy of my DL. Then, three people interviewed me, asking about my past jobs, experience, attendance, and other customer service type stuff. They let me ask them questions at the end, and said I'd hear back about the job. The whole thing was about 10-15 minutes. Got a letter a few days later saying someone else got the job. Checked HR later and saw the job was posted again.

  • What defines a 'Productive day' for you?
  • How would you manage an irate customer?

Technical Behavioral

Got contacted about 4 weeks after applying online. Interview was one-on-one with the Project Manager. He really dug into the skills I have, rather than how I'd do tasks, even though I have 10 years of experience. He also commented on my outfit (Polo & Slacks), saying it wasn't okay. He kept grilling me on my skills and asking word problem type questions because he was looking for textbook skills for a mid-level role but not much real-world problem-solving experience. I didn't get to ask any questions. He did mention he was 'cleaning house' with a grin, which felt like he might enjoy firing people. He finished by saying HR would reach out either way.

I applied in mid-February 2011 and they called me back in early March. I had the interview and the very next day they offered me the job. They asked me questions that they could have found out by looking at my application - like where I've worked, my experience, and why I quit my last job. Usually job interviews here (with the County) are with 3 or 4 people. They also asked about my strongest qualities. It seemed like they didn't review my resume and application before the interview, but they still seemed to want me for the interview. Even after the interview, it felt like they didn't really listen to what I said about myself.
