Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Youth Guidance.
Counselor
It was pretty chill and enjoyable! My top tip is to just be yourself and have some good questions ready. You'll do a mock group session to show off your skills.
- How would you approach specific situations?
Counselor
Lots of questions. It's very fast-paced, so you need to be quick with your answers. It took a while to get a response back. Everything hinges on your Resume and how you answer. Make sure to highlight skills related to group work.
- Tell me about your strengths when working in groups.
- What about your weaknesses in group settings?
- How do you handle time management and prioritizing tasks?
Counselor
The interview process was lengthy. There was a phone interview, an in-person individual interview, a group interview consisting of a mock group where in they asked me to run a counseling group, and a site visit that included an interview with the program director. Everyone I interacted with was very friendly and encouraging. Obviously it's not going to be a great experience if you interview so many times and leave without an offer but they are clear that there are many steps in their interviewing process. There is always a chance you go through all 4 or 5 steps like I did and leave empty-handed which may be something you consider as you take time off of work to participate in these many rounds of interview.
- What is your counseling philosophy?
- What is your idea of work/life balance?
