The process was slow with many questions, but worthwhile if you put in the effort. Applied via USAjobs, tailored my resume to the role, and had a virtual interview with references. Getting a notification took a long time. The people were great, though.

Behavioral Group Presentation
So, I went through 2 interviews. The first one was kinda formal, a panel interview with 4 people – the hiring lead, someone from military, someone civilian from outside the department, and a contractor. The second one was more casual, just the hiring manager asking about leadership stuff to see what kind of leader I am and if I'd fit in with the group.

Behavioral Presentation
I applied through USA Jobs and then got an email to set up a phone interview. It's a pretty formal process where they use a checklist to grade you, kind of like an Oral Board for a promotion in the federal system. Three people on the board will evaluate your answers and ask questions one by one. You get to ask your questions at the end.
