So the first interview was about an hour long, and I talked to the controller and the manager. They asked some pretty basic stuff, like the difference between profit and non-profit orgs. Then about a week later, I had my second interview, which was in person with the CFO and HR. That one was also an hour and had a lot of questions about handling too much work.

I sent my resume via email and then the program director contacted me for an interview. The interview wasn't great, she seemed really cold and didn't seem encouraging. She seemed more focused on how I looked than my experience. When I asked about the job details, she couldn't explain the duties or responsibilities. It made me wonder if she actually knows her program. I wouldn't want to work with someone so unprofessional.

The interview process was pretty good. They started by describing the background of the program and the position, and explained the duties. Then they asked typical interview questions and reviewed the resume experiences. Overall, they made sure the interviewee was comfortable during the process because interviews themselves are nerve-wracking.
