I first talked to the program coordinator for an initial chat. Then, they had me come in to see the place and take a tour. After the tour, we had the main interview. Everyone was really nice. They even gave me tips on how to get hours quickly. The last part was a panel interview with some of the managers. They were direct but polite. I left not knowing if I got it, but I got an offer soon after which made me feel better.

The interviewer was easy to connect with because of the personal small talk beforehand. He had experience in the type of role I was applying for, which I think helped me do better. I was able to answer his questions, maybe because I felt relaxed and could remember the answers. I really surprised myself.

The interviewer was really nice and casual, which helped me relax. They asked a lot of questions, some about childcare. The interviewer also shared some details about the role. I had to complete an online driver safety course and pass a test. A CORI check and fingerprinting were also done at a location in Boston.
