I applied for the job online and heard back the next day. The recruiter was friendly and we set up a phone interview for the following morning. I had already mentioned in my application that I had the required credentials and could provide proof.

I went to an open house job fair. I was interviewed by two program directors. I got a call back two weeks later. The hiring process took a while, involving lots of paperwork and online certifications (which were free). I had to pay $127 for fingerprinting, and the fee wasn't waived. The hiring manager seemed stressed and lacked manners, which should've been a red flag.

The interview process was really professional and quick. I started with a 15-minute phone interview with the recruiter at the center. Afterward, they set up an in-person interview with the academy director, which went great. She was super friendly and basically hired me right then! Now I'm just finishing up the fingerprinting and I should be starting in about a month.
