I was interviewed by a panel of about three people. They asked common questions, one I remember is how I've handled a difficult situation at work. They seemed kind of disinterested, but it's the state, so it's not a surprise. I got hired though.

It was a disorganized interview process, which should have been a clue about the organization. The interview itself was a panel interview. If you haven't worked for a state agency before, it takes a lot of getting used to, as everything is political.
