Interview
It took an extremely long time to receive a phone call once I had submitted an online application, and I was then interviewed by a panel containing upper management from several of the child development centers. They asked questions about my experience, my education, which age groups I preferred to work with, and a few hypothetical situations.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at US Army
Interview
I applied for the opening via the Army's (now defunct) hiring process, and electronically submitted my resume. The Army uses a program called Resumix, which electronically scans, grades, and ranks resumes based on expected keywords. The top resumes are forwarded to a hiring board, which whittles down the resume and picks the top three or four resumes. The person with the highest score is hired.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was not interviewed for this job, as I worked in the same facility in a different section. The only guess I can hazard is that the hiring board people (who remained anonymous) know my technical proficiency, work ethic, and my ability to work with other team members and outside agencies.
