I applied online. I had a virtual screen with HR on 2/26, then a Zoom interview with the hiring manager on 3/6. I sent a thank you note on 3/8 and had to follow up again on 3/17. They told me the next steps would be an onsite interview with the other department directors and an onsite writing assessment. They ended up picking someone with managerial experience.

The interview process was quick, which I appreciated. The staff seemed really passionate about the work and overall the conversation went well! The neutral review is due to the fact that the post for the job was listed as "commensurate with experience" but the salary was revealed at the end of our interview. It was minimum wage, with no benefits or potential for overtime. I thanked the interviewer but had to decline a second interview.

So I had 4 interviews and did an assessment for this gig, but then they just ghosted me. Never even got an official rejection even after I followed up with all 5 people I spoke to. The process was: a call with one of the team members, then an initial interview with the team lead, then a long 4-on-1 call that lasted over an hour, and finally a closing interview with a VP. After that, radio silence.

The interview process was only one interview with the person who would ultimately be my supervisor at the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. It was fairly painless as I had been in an intern in the office prior to that and was already familiar with the person who I met with. DOHMH/Fund for Public Health positions are very often filled by people who are already 'in the know.'
