First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Ohio Citizen Action.
Community Organizer
First we had a quick chat over the phone, then a short in-person meeting with other candidates, and finally, a field interview where you'd be out canvassing with a team member, but on your own for the last part of it.
No confirmed questions were included in this interview report.
Canvasser
I saw an ad on Craigslist for a Field Staff (Canvasser) position and sent in my resume. They called me the very next day. During the interview, I mentioned that I was impressed by their quick response and inquired about the number of openings. It turns out many people were being interviewed. The interviewer explained they were running a campaign and needed to hire as many qualified people as possible. I found out later that only a few of us were invited back for a second interview.
- Can you tell me about a social or environmental issue that you are concerned about?
- What in your background has helped you develop your communication skills?
- How many positions are you looking to fill?
Rural Projects Coordinator
Started with a phone interview, asking basic background questions. This call was very short, only about 15 minutes and very easy. The interview process was then two Zoom interviews, one with the supervisor and then with the supervisor and CEO.
- Can you describe how you'd handle conversations with individuals who hold different perspectives?
- What are your strategies for training volunteers?
Community Organizer
The interview was really laid-back and casual. The real challenge was the first day on the job, which was like a trial by fire. You'd start by canvassing with a senior trainer, and then you were sent out on your own to knock on doors for about 60-90 minutes.
- How resilient do you consider yourself?
