Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Habitat for Humanity.
Administrative Assistant
I had a phone interview first. Then I had to take time off work for an in-person interview, and then even more time off for another in-person interview. I took a lot of time off from my current job for this application, but I didn't end up getting the job.
- What is your reason for leaving your current job?
Administrative Assistant
The recruiter contacted me for an initial phone call. It was straightforward, although they asked me to pause several times so they could take notes. I was invited to a second interview, but it had to be postponed because the hiring manager was on vacation. I got sick around that time and asked for an extra three days to recover. Unfortunately, I then received an email saying they were moving forward with other candidates. It's frustrating because they rescheduled for themselves but expected me to interview even when I was ill with pneumonia. I'm quite disappointed. Considering the poor communication, I guess I might have avoided a bad situation.
- Was I aware that houses from Habitat for Humanity are not free?
Executive Assistant
It started with a phone interview to narrow down the applicants. Then, I had a panel interview. The phone interview went really well, and so did the in-person interview, though I was a bit nervous. I did my research on the organization and common interview questions beforehand and felt prepared. The interviewers made me feel comfortable, and I think I did a good job.
- Can you describe your experience working with diverse individuals?
- What are your compensation requirements?
