First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at The Educational Alliance.
Grant Writer
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.
- How do you manage when you have many responsibilities at once?
Teacher
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?"
- What if this happened, what will you handle?
- If that didn't work, what would you do?
People and Culture Associate
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.
- Can you describe a situation from your past experience that relates to the specific roles mentioned in the job posting?
- How would you handle a scenario similar to the ones described in the job description?
Program Assistant
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.
- Can you tell me about your experience organizing or assisting with events?
