Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Residential Services (NC).
Direct Support Professional
I talked with a house manager about my background in caring for people with IDDs. The interviewer was nice and caring when we discussed my experience and how I could do well as an intern. They had me come in for a tour of the home and to meet the residents before they hired me. After I accepted the job, I did some online training and a drug test for opiates. It was a straightforward and easy interview process!
- Can you tell me about your academic focus in school and your past work experience?
Direct Support Professional
First I was contacted by HR to talk about the job. Then I had an interview with my supervisor, we talked more about what the job entails and what they expect from me. They also gave me a tour of the place. After all that, there's training, which takes about 2 weeks total.
- Are you comfortable working with people who have challenging behaviors?
Accounts Payable Payroll Specialist
I found the job posting on Craigslist and sent in my application. The very next day, an HR person called me to set up a time to come in. It wasn't really an interview, I just stopped by after work to introduce myself and drop off my resume. After that, we set up the actual interview. I talked with the Executive Director of RSI, the Finance team, and the IT Director. There were a lot of people applying, but they really wanted to hire someone fast, so they offered me the job the day after my interview. I started the hiring paperwork as soon as I could, which included a background check approval and a drug test. The drug test was a bit unpleasant because I had to spit in a tube, and I'm easily grossed out, but I guess it's better than someone watching you go. If you're going to be working with residents, they'll also test you for TB.
- Describe your ideal office setup.
- What prompted you to apply for this position?
- Are you able to create a pivot table in Excel?
Direct Support Coordinator
HR reached out to me for a quick call. Then I had an interview with the head of HR. After that, I met with the Supervisor of Support Services and the Director of the Department. I then visited the house to meet the residents I would be supporting. After that, I got the offer. Even though it had more steps than some other jobs, it was pretty fast and I was hired within 2 weeks of applying.
- Describe how you would handle specific scenarios, prioritizing resident autonomy and independence.
