Large zoom interview with 8 interviewers. Standard questions. Did 2 interviews same day for different locations, similar job functions, felt like the two managers knew and compared notes. Zoom calls followed by an in person meet and greet at the one they liked me for...very personable and comfortable experience in person, felt a bit courted by them during that part of the process.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Deschutes County (Bend, OR) in Aug 2024
Interview
Virtual interview with the CFO, the Director of Finance, as well as two in peer roles for the County. Series of 10 thoughtful questions that were all provided when the first question was given. Made it easier to answer seeing the words and to refer to them. Gave ample time to ask them questions about the role, team, and work culture.

Interview
Very little notice, rescheduled me at the last minute, unnecessarily large interview panel. Overall felt very unprofessional. Didn’t communicate back to me for weeks after the interview process. My time didn’t feel respected.
