I applied online and they called me back pretty quickly, within 2 days, to set up an interview. It was supposed to be a group thing, but it ended up just being me. The interview itself lasted about 1.5 hours, and that included a tour of the place, which is massive. The interviewer was super knowledgeable and really loved what he does. We chatted for about an hour about my background and what the job involves. He was great about answering all my questions, and then some. I had to fill out some forms and answer two short-answer questions on paper. After that, we did the tour. I was really impressed by the size of the facility and the staff; everyone was so nice and welcoming. You could totally tell they enjoy taking care of the kids with intellectual disabilities. Sadly, I had to turn down the offer because of my schedule. Their shifts are mostly evenings and weekends.

It was at a job fair, and the interviewer was at their desk. People were lined up to talk to them. It was a one-on-one chat. It was really straightforward; the interviewer mainly wanted to know why I was interested in the job. They also asked how I'd handle specific scenarios. For a Teacher's Assistant intern, it's key to show you know how to work well with kids, focusing on safety, rules, and following directions, while also thinking about different age groups.

The interview process was laid-back, but after receiving a job offer, I was asked about my background. I had already been given orientation and start dates. However, when I was honest about a minor past incident from seven years ago, they rescinded the dates and said they'd be in touch. They were very nice, and she assured me I had nothing to worry about, though I hope they contact me soon.

It was a two-part interview. First, I met with the supervisor, and then I met with her supervisor. I also met with some clients and got a tour of the office. The supervisor was really patient and answered all my questions. It took a couple of weeks, and it felt like a thorough but fair process.
