First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at LAHSA.
Business Analyst
It was 2 rounds of panel interviews that consisted of subject matter experts and management. The interview process was relatively quick but the offer stage took a bit longer. Given the the recent news surrounding the organization I realized this was not the right fit for me and my family.
- Can you describe your experience creating dashboards?
Analyst
I had a panel interview over Zoom with a Director, a Manager, and an HR person. They asked me about ten questions, and then I got to ask them some questions too. It took a couple of months to get a response after the interview.
- In what ways is racial equity significant to the job, and how would you incorporate it into your responsibilities?
Financial Analyst
Had one video interview that went pretty well. They asked some behavioral questions and gave an introduction to the company. My future manager was the interviewer and was easy to chat with. Overall, it was a positive experience.
- Can you tell me more about yourself?
Budget Analyst
I applied and was contacted within two weeks. They scheduled an in-person interview and mentioned an email confirmation would be sent. I had to follow up with the HR contact to get the email. The email included a request for a mock memorandum and a self-assessment of my Microsoft Office skills. Upon arrival at the LAHSA office, I was given another, straightforward test. There was a significant amount of preparatory material provided for this interview. The interviewers seemed unaware of the specific position I was applying for and asked relatively basic questions. During the interview, they revealed that daily travel to various LAHSA sites would be required, which was not stated in the job description. I was surprised to learn that another interview would be necessary for a role that was expected to pay over $60k. I have not yet received any communication from LAHSA about the job opportunity.
