Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society Interview Questions
& Process

It was a super stressful and frustrating interview experience. First, HR called me for an initial screening. I gave them my availability, but then they said someone else would contact me to reschedule and I never heard back, and the email bounced. I had to contact their general info address to get the interview rescheduled. I had some concerns during the phone screen about potential job description changes due to a restructure, but I decided to continue. The next interview was with the supervisor, but they had another scheduling issue and rescheduled last minute. I finally had the second interview the following week. They didn't allow me time to ask about the next steps, so I emailed them several times but got no response. I guess I shouldn't be surprised given the disorganization throughout the process, and how they seem indifferent to how it impacts applicants.

The interview was good and comfortable. They asked simple questions, and you shouldn't get nervous because they are very attentive. The hiring process was quick, and they explained how the recruitment process works. If you're not selected, they send a thank-you email.

I applied online and got a really quick response from HR for a chat. After that, they set up an in-person meeting with the hiring manager, and everything seemed to be moving fast. The interview felt more like a conversation, which was nice, and I got some positive feedback. They gave me a clear date to hear back, but then nothing. I followed up about a new timeline, and still nothing. It's pretty rude to just go silent when candidates are invested, you know? I really like the work they do and the people I met were great, but I'd be hesitant to join or recommend them because of how the interview process ended and the lack of follow-up.

I had a really frustrating interview experience for this role. I drove down for an in-person interview in the fall, and I thought it went pretty well. The tone was friendly and conversational, and they asked about my experience, but nothing too challenging. They said I'd hear back within a month. But then... nothing. Around New Years, two months later, I sent a polite email to wish them a Happy New Year and say I was still interested. It's been three months since that email and I still haven't heard back. It's frustrating because, while I understand not everyone responds to applications, it's just rude to interview someone and not even let them know they didn't get the job.
