Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at U.S. General Services Administration.
Program Support Specialist
There were three interviews for this role. The first was an in-person panel interview at their downtown offices, which felt a bit disorganized. The other two interviews were panel interviews conducted over the phone. The people I spoke with were very nice, and after the three interviews, I really felt like I was going to get a job offer. I emailed to follow up several weeks later and was told that another candidate had been selected.

Program Support Specialist
I applied in early October and was referred via USAJobs about a week later. They contacted me for an interview in late November. I went in for a second interview less than a week after that, and then I got the offer the following week. The interviewers were super nice and made me feel really comfortable. I actually met with the CFO directly, and they spent a good amount of time getting to know me and my career aspirations, which was great. All in all, my interview experiences with GSA were fantastic, even if I hadn't gotten the job. They really showed what the GSA work culture is like: open, interactive, and supportive.
- Given your extensive work history in Public Health, please clarify how GSA aligns with your goals, especially since GSA doesn't operate specifically within this field.
- Can you articulate how your career aspirations connect with GSA?
Transportation Specialist
I had a panel interview where all the interviewers were managers. It seemed like an easy process because of who was interviewing me. They asked typical transportation questions covering fleet maintenance, customer service, and how to right-size fleets to best use taxpayer money.
- How would you deal with particular obstacles related to the fleet?
