Interview Details
I received an interview because I have been volunteering at the club all year.
The interview was more difficult than I expected. There were two supervisors and they taped the answers I gave so they could review them later and I thought that was a great idea.
They asked me scenerios questions.
Interview Questions
Declined Offer – Interviewed in Indianapolis, IN (US) – Reviewed Mar 10, 2013
Interview Details I applied online and was called back very quickly. I went in for an interview two days later and was interviewed by three people. The questions were pretty easy and just asked about past experiences, why I applied there, what are my career goals, etc. The interviewers were unorganized and didn't know what they were doing.
Interview Question – How would you make a game of basketball fun Answer Question
Reason for Declining – The place was extremely nasty and smelled bad and the pay was very low. Additionally, the director was rude and unprofessional.
No Offer – Interviewed in Atlanta, GA (US) – Reviewed Mar 01, 2013
Interview Details I applied for the position online. I received a telephone interview request within a few days of applying. The interview was supposed to be an hour long but thirty minutes in to the interview I was told I could continue with the phone interview or that she could send me an email to have me answer the rest of the questions. I was taken aback by this sudden change since we hadn't really discussed my qualifications or the details of the position but I could tell she was ready to get of the phone. When I called back to ask if I needed to complete the questions I had already answered I was told that they already had everything they needed and didn't need to answer any additional questions. I would consider the interviewer to be rude and unprofessional.
Interview Question – I never got to the question and answer session of the interview. Answer Question

Interview Questions
Accepted Offer – Reviewed Jan 20, 2013
Interview Details Tedious and slow. Phone interview with HR assistant- very scripted. Followed by second phone interview with HR (recruiter). in person interview with a panel of 3 including the hiring manager. All behavioral questions with next to no questions that elicit my real ability to do the job. weeks after interview to get offer together. Also had to write a letter. Really basic, silly for a job at the level I was interviewing. Makes you realize the caliber of typical applicant if this was a critical part of the interview process.
Interview Question – Dont recall exact questions but all behavioral. What would you do in "x" situation; tell me about a time that you had to do "x" Answer Question
Negotiation Details – SLOW. HR team seems to have no experience outside this organization and be overly enamored with themselves and their perceived "best you will get anywhere" benefits. Free Parking is touted as an amazing part of the package. LOL. Pay is sub-standard. Benefits are average.
Accepted Offer – Interviewed on Wilmington, CA (US) Sep 2011 – Reviewed Jan 23, 2013
Interview Details As a previous student I was hired upon reliability and frequent work while in highschool. I was given the chance to be hired without interview, but as the interview process goes, there are specific character traits that the Boys and Girls clubs requires, and that is of a patient, loving, and caring nature. If you cannot socialize well with young people and do not have self discipline then this is not the job for you.
Interview Question – What can you do to make a change in a kids life. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – wages are non-negotiable, you get a flat pay until you prove yourself in this profession. Your salary increases as your experience and efficiency increases.
