I got an email saying I got an interview and passed to the next round. The next step is a video interview. It's a bit weird, but the questions are personal and not so business-focused, which I like.

It was a really long process. The organization seemed solid and the people seemed happy working there, and the pay was competitive for a large nonprofit. You should be prepared to put your faith, rather your Christian faith on display to get this job.

I found the job on their website and applied. After that, I got an email to schedule a phone interview. I talked to an HR person first, and then I spoke with the head of the department on a different day. Both of these interviews went pretty smoothly, just like I expected. They asked me about my faith, my life in general, and my previous work experience. They really emphasized how important it was to be fully invested in their mission.
