I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at American Red Cross
Interview
Very easy and straightforward. I would suggest that interested applicants simply read up about the American Red Cross and recent activities they are engaging in. I was initially interviewed via phone by two AmeriCorps VISTA fellows then the second interview was in-person with my supervisor. After the interview with the supervisor, I was immediately offered the internship.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at American Red Cross (New York, NY)
Interview
- first contact was through an internship fair at my university
- received an email from the recruiter requesting to schedule an interview
- they did not have time to interview me until a month later so that was a bit inconvenient
- attended the interview expecting to be talking to one person, but instead I was interviewed by a panel of 4 HR staff members
- interview was pretty standard and they were all very kind
- I received an email a few days later requesting a background check
- after the background check was completed I was officially offered the position and I accepted
