The interview process was very direct. I had a comprehensive interview with two employees, one of whom was in a more senior position, right in the first round. They asked several repetitive questions about policies and ethical standards. They only allowed about three minutes for my questions. After the interview, they asked for references, but I chose not to proceed further due to my experience and the role not being the ideal fit.

There were 3 rounds. I met with the people I would be working with. We talked a lot about veteran experience and making sure I understood it. We also discussed different office locations and the importance of knowing about the veteran community, including challenges like homelessness and PTSD after they separate from service.

It was a really thorough interview process. We began with a phone interview, and if that went well, the next step was an in-person interview. They gave me a good overview of the job duties and discussed the living accommodations.
