First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Starfish Family Services.
Lead Teacher
I met with 4 people in a room and they asked me some scenario based questions. It was pretty easy. They called me back for the lead teacher position in less than a week, because my supervisor retired.
- Can you share a time you went above and beyond to help a family?
Case Manager
It was a panel interview, they asked me some scenario questions about the role. After they were done asking questions, I got to ask them questions, which you totally should ;). After the interview, HR contacted me about the decision or an offer.
- If a client's child is struggling in school, and you discuss the situation with the mother, discovering the family is also facing eviction and has been denied food stamps, what would be your initial steps to assist this family?
Infant Mental Health Therapist
I got a call where they gave me a quick rundown of the job and asked me some experience questions. Then I had a virtual interview which went really well, and the job seemed great. I ended up turning down the offer after not getting the pay I wanted because I got a better offer somewhere else. Tough choice.
- Are you passionate about this kind of work?
Outpatient Therapist
The interviewers were ready for our chat, having looked over my resume and related stuff. This made our conversation flow well and stay on track. They really talked with me, asking good, pertinent questions that I could give solid answers to. It felt like a good back-and-forth.
- Tell me about a difficult case you handled and the lessons you took away from it.
