First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Grassroots Campaigns.
Field Canvasser
They interviewed me. It was just a conversation. There was discussion of what the job would entail and my reasons for being interested, they said they would call, and later they gave me an offer over the phone and had me come in to sign papers.
- Are you interested in politics and why do you want to canvass?
Data Analyst
The interview process included an initial HR screening, then a technical round where they focused on your project experience, and finished with a final discussion to check cultural fit and how you align with the company's goals. Overall Good Experience
- Can you tell me about a difficult technical problem you faced in a past project, and explain how you figured it out and fixed it?
- What was the impact of your solution on the project's results?
Community Outreach
You'll get a call to schedule an interview. They'll typically call everyone who applies, but if the applicant list is long they may not get to you. If you call and leave a message, they'll schedule you for an interview. It's really easy. The truth is they'll hire anybody if the interview goes well. Just answer the questions and talk about some important causes to you.
- Can you discuss a cause that is important to you?
- Please introduce yourself.
Assistant Director
The interview process was a bit confusing at first. A recruiter met me on campus and asked about my general experience with some unclear questions. I didn't realize it was an interview until midway through. At the end, he asked for my resume and said it counted as the first round. The next day, someone from the central office contacted me for a Skype interview. The questions were similar to the first round, but I had to go into more detail about my nonprofit experience. I felt pretty good about it because I was just talking from my heart. After the second round, I followed up a few times and was asked about my top three location preferences. Within a week, I got an offer and had three days to decide. I accepted, and though they wanted me to start right away, I needed to graduate and get organized, so they gave me about a month and a half. There was no help offered for moving or finding housing.
- Did you mentor anyone and were you able to measure their success as a result of your mentorship?
- Are you willing to work more than 60 hours a week?
- What is your main driving passion?
