Behavioral Presentation

The senior americorp interview is pretty simple. It's a one hour meeting with leadership where they ask typical questions. Then they talk about next year's stipend and ask if you have any questions for them.

Behavioral Presentation

It was a really friendly interview process. The HR rep was super communicative and always on time. This was for an AmeriCorps position way back in 2015. First, there were some video questions you had to do (don't stress about them, just take a breath, smile, and look at your screen's camera so it looks like you're making eye contact). Then, there were a couple of in-person interviews with the Program Managers (there were 2 or 3 of them), and they were all really nice. The whole thing took about a month, so make sure you check your emails regularly and don't overthink all the people they CC you on.

I talked with two staff members. They asked me a lot of character and scenario questions. They also asked about my previous experience with non-profits, teams, students, and school partners. The whole thing was very casual.
