I sent in my application online via the county website back in March. About two months after applying, I got a call for an interview. I met with four interviewers who asked me questions about my past work and also about how I'd handle different situations. They were all very nice and easy to talk to, making the conversation flow well. Not long after, I was contacted for a second interview with a different group of four people. This interview was set up the same way and was also a really good experience. I had plenty of time to give my answers and also to ask them questions. The whole interview process was pretty standard, nothing really surprising. Everyone I encountered was professional and kind. I thought the whole process was great.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

I had three separate interviews with county leaders. During the interviews, there were some concerning comments about county employees being too old and needing to leave. The interviewer also overused buzzwords that they didn't seem to understand. There was a lack of management accountability for the workforce's poor performance.
