The interview process was very organized and moved along nicely. I went through three interviews, and they were all really professional and friendly. I felt comfortable right away. The interviewers told me a lot about the Jewish Board and what they do, which made me even more interested in the job. I felt good about my chances of getting hired, and I really liked how the organization showed they care about the people they help.

I was really excited about The Jewish Board's mission and the chance to work on their behavioral health programs. But, my chat with a VP who manages program Directors made me seriously question the leadership culture there. During the interview, the VP was 6 minutes late without saying anything, turned their camera off sometimes, even when I was talking, and only asked a few questions, wrapping up the interview part after about 10 minutes. Some questions were the same ones HR already asked, showing they didn't prepare. They didn't engage much, spending more time talking about their own job than learning about me. They also seemed reluctant to even be there. For a senior role in a trauma-informed behavioral health place, you'd expect leaders to have presence, be curious, and be respectful. This didn't feel like the organization's values of dignity, professionalism, and accessibility. The hiring process should highlight leadership strengths, but this just showed a big gap between what they say they do and how senior leaders actually act. My advice for others: Watch how senior leaders run the interview. It says a lot about the daily vibe and if people feel valued, supported, and respected.

It was a pretty standard interview process with a few rounds, and they moved pretty quickly. One interviewer did mention that the company is currently undergoing some internal changes, and with a few sites closing down, the opportunities for in-person work or travel might be different now.

Behavioral Presentation
My interview with The Jewish Board was engaging and insightful. I felt respected throughout, from the first contact to the last talk. Ms. Bernadotte asked good questions that made me think about my leadership, values, and goals. The process helped me see the leader I want to be: one who aims high, supports others, and leads by example. The interviews were professional but friendly, and I liked talking about my experiences and ideas. It was clear The Jewish Board cares about qualifications, personal growth, and fitting their mission. This made me feel good about joining and sure it was a good place for me to grow.
