First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Perot Museum of Nature and Science.
Program Assistant
I applied online and a few weeks later they requested a video interview since I'm not local. The interview started on time and they asked me questions like "Tell us about yourself." It was really short, only 3-4 questions. I had to ask them questions to make it last 15 minutes. They seemed uninterested. I sent thank you emails but never heard back, not even an automated rejection. It's unacceptable. You should always let candidates know the status of the job.
- Could you introduce yourself?
Educator
The hiring process was pretty straightforward. Navigating the 'jobs' section on their website was easy, and submitting my application was also simple. They reviewed my resume and got back to me with an interview invitation within a week. The interview itself felt quite informal, and the interviewers were really friendly. It lasted about 30 minutes, and I was offered the job the very next day.
- Can you tell me about your experience working with children?
- How at ease do you feel speaking in front of groups?
- What aspects of teaching do you find enjoyable, and what do you find less enjoyable?
Cashier
I applied and about a week later the hiring manager reached out. We met at the museum, went to her office, and she talked about what she liked on my resume. She asked me some questions, told me about the job, and then offered me the position. She didn't ask a ton of questions. She gave me her card and said to contact her if I had any questions, and that I'd get the background check info in the next 24-48 hours. The only downside is I can't start for about two to three weeks. Other than that, it was a really good and straightforward interview.
