It was a panel interview with a few supervisors, and they asked a lot of long, difficult questions. Some questions were really relevant to libraries, but others seemed more general.

Behavioral Presentation

For my first interview, I met with three managers. They asked me some basic questions, and then I had to do a 10-minute story time presentation. The whole thing was supposed to be 45 minutes, but it got cut short because they had another person waiting for an interview.

I got an interview about a month after applying. Then, I got the offer about 2 weeks after the interview. They asked me to pick my top 5 branch preferences. I think I ended up 5th in line for the panel interview, since I got my second choice.
