Had an online one-way interview where I had to answer multiple questions within a time limit. Then I had a fit interview, which was pretty chill, and could be done in person or virtually. It wasn't technical or role-based, just general questions about my spiritual journey.

Overall disappointed in Samaritan's interview process. I had a phone interview in December and heard nothing from the organization till the end of February and that was to let me know that I did not get the position. I do understand that a lot people apply, but I do not see the need to wait that long to let the people that didn't do good enough in the phone interview, or make it through any of the the steps, know that they didn't get a position. This is inconsiderate to those that are trying to make other plans and are waiting to hear back. There needs to be more communication throughout the process.

I only got to the first round of interviews but that first round involved me recording myself answering questions that they asked me. It had me record videos of myself answering 5 question and I did not get to retake these videos. I have a friend who just went through this process and she said that now you get more than one chance at recording the videos.
