It was a chill chat, not super intense. They asked some basic stuff like you'd expect in a regular interview. Make sure you have some questions ready for them at the end and show you're keen.

It was a lengthy process and a waste of time, quite unprofessional. They make you give information but never provide any feedback. Also, no response to emails. There was a one-on-one interview and a group interview to see how you work with others.

Behavioral Technical

This interview is quite long, about an hour. They ask a lot of questions related to the role of a school psychologist, including assessments, procedures, regulations, and the continuum of special education services. However, they can't tell you about your potential caseload or the population you'd be working with during this first interview. It seems like it's a multi-step hiring process before you get assigned to a school. So, if you're an experienced psychologist who knows exactly what you want, it's tough to figure out if this job is a good fit and if you want to keep going with the application after this initial chat.

The interview process has 3 rounds in total. I only finished the first round and I was offered to move on to the second round. I'm not sure how the group activity will work. They responded within a day.
