Had a two round interview process. First, I met with the hiring manager and a committee of staff members from different departments. Then I met with the director. There was also an administrative skills test that involved using Excel.

I applied online, and to help get past the computer filter, I made sure to put keywords from the job description on my resume, which I totally recommend. I then got a call to come in for an interview. The interview was pretty similar to what others have said – I met with directors and staff, some meetings were one-on-one and some were in a group setting. The interviews were long.

After applying, I got an automated interview invite within 24 hours. It was a virtual chat with the recruiter. The recruiter wasn't ready with my resume; I tried to share it on Teams but couldn't, so I had to email it later. The questions were straightforward, but the interviewer seemed bored. They claimed the person before me worked with the exec for 10 years, but I know that's wrong because I met them in 2021 and they only started supporting the exec less than 4 years ago. I was also sleep-deprived due to a household illness. I didn't do as well as I wanted in the recruiter interview, but I'm still a strong candidate. The screening process needs improvement.
