First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Blood Cancer United.
Campaign Development Specialist
The interview process took a while, but it was pretty clear. First, I talked to the recruiter. Then, it took four weeks to set up a second chat with the Director. It was a chill conversation with typical questions about my skills and why I wanted the job. They gave me info on the timeline and what happens next, even mentioning things like taking a week off between jobs and when the next interview might be. But, just five days later, I got a generic rejection email from the website, not even from the recruiter or director, which felt weird after all that.
- What are your motivations for joining our company?
- What aspects of this position spark your interest?
- What are your concerns regarding this opportunity?
Development Manager
It was a really straightforward process with great communication. The hiring manager and HR were easy to work with and very personable. It started with a phone screen, then an interview with the hiring manager, followed by an interview with the executive director, and then I heard back about their decision. There were no games and no long waits to hear back.
- Can you discuss your experience with fundraising and a situation where you had to think quickly?
- Tell me about a time you had to improvise.
Campaign Development Director
I went through 4 interviews for this role. The first two were with a recruiter. After the second interview, I emailed the recruiter with some questions but she had left LLS. A new recruiter reached out with a thanks/no thanks, and I responded politely. Then I got another email saying there was a mistake and I was to be interviewed two more times. Unfortunately, I had to reschedule the last interview because I couldn't make it due to a work event in another part of the state. The recruiter said it was no big deal. After waiting two weeks, I was again told thanks/no thanks. The position is apparently still open. It was a really odd and unprofessional process, which is a shame because I'm passionate about the mission. I hope they sort out their hiring process soon.
- Tell me about a difficult fundraising situation you managed.
- Describe a particularly rewarding fundraising experience.
Fundraising Campaign Manager
The initial 30-minute phone call went way over, lasting about an hour and a half. It started with the interviewer reading my entire work history for about ten minutes, which was weird. They seemed nice and talked up their own experience at the company, but didn't know much about the team for the city I applied to, other than there's a new director and people leaving. They also seemed distracted, even apologizing because their dog needed attention. On the plus side, they were really open about the salary, reimbursements, and the next steps in hiring.
- Can you share your experience with fundraising campaigns and the amounts you've raised?
- What was the total amount of money raised from your relevant campaign experience?
