The interview was structured. There were two people asking questions. They asked seven questions in total. Some questions were about DEI, others were about specific situations. I had to give examples of how and why I handled them, and what the outcome was.

I applied online. Months later, I got a call to set up an in-person interview. I thought I was meeting with the person who contacted me, but when I got there after a six-hour drive, it was a panel of three EMS workers for a different job. They clearly didn't read my resume. I'm a lawyer with experience in bioethics, public policy, and healthcare finance, but they didn't seem to notice. The first thing that happened was a woman told me off for wearing a mask, even though the instructions said to. She asked if I had a medical condition, which is illegal during an interview, and said I had to take it off if I didn't. Given where I was and that I had just traveled, I thought wearing a mask would be common sense if they cared about health. I should have left then.

They talked about the job details. Three interviewers asked questions and wrote down my answers. They were nice and professional. I was able to ask them questions too.

The interview was brief, and I was hired immediately. I had met the hiring official before, and they were already familiar with my work history, skills, and readiness for the job. My hiring was a stepping stone to a full-time "merit system" position I stayed in for 31 years.
