The process took 1 day. I interviewed at City of Rochester, New York (Rochester, NY) in Mar 2022
Interview
The first step in the process was taking a Civil Service Exam. The actual interview process was a two person panel. One of the panelist was very laid back, the 2nd panelist was very intense and it was clear from the start of the the interview that he was going to be very difficult.

I applied online. I interviewed at City of Rochester, New York (Rochester, NY) in Apr 2018
Interview
It was at a job fair. You usually waited until someone at the table finished their interview. You went to multiple tables for different locations you wanted to work for as pool attendant, recreation assistant, locker room attendant. I went to a table for a specific rec center and when I finished I went to wait my turn to go to the table for pool related jobs. I watched the two guys talk about every minority they interviewed, yet welcomed people (the few I saw) that looked like them with no problem. I went up after one person finished and when I was almost there I heard Michael Corey, the interviewer say ". . . oh my god" literally talking low to the interviewer next to him. Then he was behaving as if it was a problem for me to be there. As if I didn't know what positions the table was for, which I qualified for. It would be nice if the people hired in supervisory roles were closely examined or were kept to only city residents, especially seeing that the people they work with are minorities. Prejudice shows in many forms. It kind of ruined the experience. I haven't heard anything back.
