It was a really smooth and helpful interview process. The people were really nice and clear about the vision and mission of the organization. They were intentional about assessing your heart and motivation to work there and move forward with the calling.

Behavioral Presentation

It was an in-person interview with 3 people (Regional Director, Regional Admin, and Regional board member). They asked personal questions to get to know me and my desire to work in christian ministry. They asked how I would handle certain situations with students, donors, and committee members. The interviewers were very friendly and not intimidating.
