First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at National Museum of Mathematics.
Computer Science Intern
It was a zoom call a while ago. They want to know about who you are as a person, why you're passionate about math, your skills. It lasted maybe twenty or thirty minutes.
- Can you tell me about your portfolio?
Operator
I had one interview with the Executive Director over Zoom. It covered behavioral and technical stuff, including about 3 math problems. It was pretty easy.
- What's your approach to managing children who are running around in the museum?
Patron Relations Assistant
You'll talk to a few different people, like HR, your potential boss, and even the CEO, often over video. Then you'll have to write about your experience with Math and MoMath's mission. After that, there's a test and another essay to write. Once they look over what you submitted, they'll offer you the job.
- What makes you want to work at this organization?
Administrative
I sent in my application and a few days later, I had a phone interview. It was about my past experience and learning about the job and the company. Then, I was invited to come in for an interview with the recruiter and my potential manager. This in-person interview was about 40 minutes, and we asked each other questions to see if the role was a good fit. After that, I had to spend about an hour doing some written exercises. I found out about a week later that I didn't get the job.
- Do you have experience with Mac computers?
