First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Delaware Health and Social Services.
Social Worker
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.
- What are your thoughts on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)?
- Can you provide an example of a situation you faced and how you dealt with it?
- Explain your approach to handling that specific circumstance.
Public Health Administrator
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.
- Were there questions specific to a Paramedic's job that you were asked?
- Were you asked questions about current Delaware State medical employees that an outsider would not know?
Telephone Operator
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.
- Can you define customer service in your own words?
Facilities Manager
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.
