First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Economic Mobility Pathways.
Director of Housing
It was a 3-stage interview process. The first stage was a phone screen. The second and third stages were Zoom calls with the hiring manager. The initial HR manager and the hiring manager were both very personable and friendly!
- Can you describe your experience managing multiple people?
- What makes you want to take this role?
Supervisor
First, a phone interview to go over your resume. Then, a 1:1 with the director, followed by a second interview with your direct supervisors, and finally, a third interview with the president. The interviews will include questions and scenarios, with a focus on staff and participant interactions.
- How would you handle a staff member who isn't holding a participant accountable?
Mobility Mentor
It started with a phone interview and then a panel interview came a couple weeks later. I had to follow up weekly for status updates as they were going through lots of changes and hadn't made a decision. I sent emails and called and was able to come in for another one on one interview in which I was hired on the spot. The process does take awhile due to staff workload but it was worth checking in and being your own advocate.
- What skills would you use in working with low income families to help them obtain economic self sufficiency?
Associate
I applied online and heard back about a week later about setting up an in-person interview. I had a 1.5 hour interview with three people. Everyone was really nice and it felt pretty conversational.
- What are the root causes of poverty, in your opinion?
