Got a quick call with HR first, then talked to the clinical supervisors. They were mainly interested in how I handle case conceptualization and treatment planning. The whole thing moved pretty fast.

The hiring process was pretty standard, involving phone calls and emails. Scheduling the interview was fast. The HR department could really step up their game in terms of etiquette and customer service. Not replying to follow-up emails makes it seem like a company nobody wants to work for. A good HR department would get back to people and let those not chosen know. They should respect applicants' time and communicate better.

You might have a phone interview where they check your secondary language if you applied as bilingual. Then, you'll have an in-person interview with the hiring supervisor and one other person. If you pass that, you'll interview with parents on the policy council, with a supervisor present. Make sure to be ready to speak English and Spanish if you're bilingual.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Could you describe a situation where you had to deal with a challenging parent?

I talked to two directors in the first interview. They told me about the school and the community mental health service program, asked me about my experience and qualifications, and gave me a tour of the place. The Clinical Director interviewed me the second time, mainly about my past therapist experiences and to answer more questions about the job. HR called me a week later to do a Spanish language test on the phone.
