It was formal but thoughtful. Make sure you research the values and mission of the organization. Think about why you’d be a good fit, how you can help Providence with their mission and why you want to work for them, specifically.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview process included an initial phone screen with the HR recruiter, followed by a phone screen with the hiring manager, and then a phone screen with a key partner/client in the org. The final round was an in-person panel interview with the hiring manager, the organization's partner/client, and a peer. I applied last August and heard back in November, with an offer in December. It wasn't the fastest process, but the HR recruiter was great and kept me updated with feedback. I accepted a salary about $20K less than I wanted, but I considered their non-profit status, culture, and that they were offering at the top of their range. I felt respected and well-communicated with.
