Had three interviews total. The last one was a group interview with the grant writing team. It felt very collaborative and like everyone on the team had an equal say. They asked about managing lots of deadlines, how to build connections with people inside the organization and also with the people who give the grants, and a bit about DEI.

Behavioral Case

It was a 3 step interview. First, a supervisor interview. Second, an interview with active parents, which was the hardest. Third, an HR interview. The parents kept asking me situational questions like "What if this happened, what will you handle?" and "If that didn't work, what would you do?"

Behavioral Technical

I had three interviews, all on Zoom. I spoke with a bunch of people, six in total, from the department I'm hoping to join. They made an offer pretty quickly after the last one. Everyone was really nice, which was cool. The chats felt natural and friendly, not super formal.

It was a phone call interview, and honestly, it felt a bit all over the place. The job posting mentioned assisting with sculpture lectures, which I was ready to dive into, but the interviewer mostly just wanted to talk about my event assistance background.
