The first interview was in person with two education coordinators at their office. The second interview was through Zoom. Everyone was super nice and it all went pretty smoothly. All in all, it was a really nice experience.

The interview process was quick and smooth. I would say one of the best processes I have been in thus far. I had a three-step interview process. First is a general overview, then a second more thorough interview with the department, and then a final take-home assignment. The questions and conversations per interview were very intentional/thoughtful. The communication and transparency throughout were also top-tier.

The interview involved a single round where the department members asked questions. Each person asked questions and then follow-up questions. I was asked to introduce myself and then asked about 6-7 questions. Time was allocated at the end for my questions.

It was a pretty straightforward process. I submitted my resume online and got a call back about a week later. The interview took place at the museum in an upstairs office. I met with the head of my department and her assistant. They asked basic questions and seemed unprepared, like they were just asking whatever came to mind.
