The first round was alright, but I had trouble finding the right building because HR didn't send an email confirmation. When I called, they just said 'main building.' Anyway, the first round with the HRD went well, and I felt good about it. They called the next day to set up a second round with the team. The second round wasn't as good. I thought I'd meet the team one-on-one, but instead, I was in a small, hot office with all four team members already there. It was awkward and uncomfortable. I didn't get the job, but they said I'd hear back in a few days. I never did. I get not hearing back after a phone screen, but after two rounds and meeting five people, I expected some feedback. Maybe they're still deciding and I'll get a call next week. (That was sarcasm.)

Behavioral Case Presentation

The first interview involved basic questions about my background and what I'd bring as a case manager. I was interviewed by 3 people, including the program director, and it seemed to go well. They invited me back for a second interview where 5 people interviewed me, including two from upper management and one case manager. They gave me a list of detailed scenarios and asked how I would handle them. I didn't get a callback after that second interview. Fortunately, I had another job offer, so I didn't follow up with Edgewood.

After submitting my resume and cover letter via email, I got an email back two weeks later asking for an interview. I went to the interview where four staff members and one supervisor interviewed me. The following week, I had a second interview. I was offered the job a week after that second interview.

I sent my application and they replied the very next day. I have a second interview scheduled for this week, which will be a 1-on-1. The staff were all really nice and laid-back, making me feel more comfortable. The facility is large and pleasant.
