First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at District Council 37.
Legislative Intern
The interview was very personable and sweet! They really wanted to get to know me and pick my brain! I found that confidence went a long way in how I addressed my interests and my stance on certain political issues. Of course, as this position is affected by politics, your stance is important.
- Tell me about a time you've demonstrated leadership.
Community Organizer
Never heard back after the initial interview. I had to change my response to a personal legacy question because my original answer wasn't considered legacy-worthy. The interviewers were nice and engaging. They ask about willingness to volunteer. If you say no, they'll explain how demanding the full-time role is, requiring time after 5 pm and overnight availability. They'll only proceed if you're interested in volunteering as an organizer.
- What is your personal legacy?
Social Worker
Since I had an employee referral and had previously interned elsewhere in the company, I skipped the initial phone screen and any skill/clinical knowledge/therapeutic style assessments. I had a single interview with two senior-level people from the organization. They were nice and answered all my questions, giving me a lot of info about the department and the job.
- Could you describe a challenging case or client you encountered and explain your approach to managing it?
Legal
The interview process was pretty straightforward. I met with two supervising attorneys and we had a good talk about law and its impact on the union. We went over job duties, any worries about dealing with clients, and what a typical day looks like. I submitted a writing sample and then got an offer about two weeks later.
- When clients are unfamiliar with the law, what strengths do you offer in your approach to a case?
- How do you handle cases for clients who might not understand legal matters?
- What value do you add to a case, particularly when clients lack legal knowledge?
