Very cordial, smooth, and to the point! I enjoyed learning more about the organization and sharing my own work experiences. The interview process felt very comfortable and welcoming. Would recommend applying for a position here.

Prior work experiences related to the job I was applying for
Elaborate on certain experiences listed on resume
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cypress Hills Local Development Corporation (Brooklyn, NY) in Aug 2012
Interview
Very easy, they ask how you would handle a few scenarios involving kids.
Explain to you about the program and policies.
if you are done your interview and they pretty much give you a medical to get completed and ask for references you got the job on the spot.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cypress Hills Local Development Corporation in Sep 2009
Interview
Quick response from organization once I applied. Interviewer was frank and a good communicator, really seemed to be searching thoughtfully for the right person for the job. Questions were tough, but not asked in an intimidating way. This definitely helped the interviewer get honest responses from me, which i think ended up benefiting both of us. Note: I wore a suit for the initial interview, and was glad I did. But also wore one for the second one, which I should not have done. A little less formal would have made a better impression during the second interview, and would have shown that I noticed the culture.
