NY Human Rights Division interview questions

I recently applied for the Data Analyst 1 position with the NY Human Rights Division, and the experience was incredibly frustrating. The initial questions I received from were redundant, as all the requested information—such as my education and work experience—was clearly outlined in my resume. Despite this, I answered them promptly. After that, I was asked to provide my location preference, even though I had specifically applied for the Albany location. They also mentioned that the position would involve up to 50% in-office work, but there was no clarity on which days would be remote or in-person. I inquired about available locations and remote/in-office scheduling, but I never received a response. Instead, I was sent a rejection email with the vague explanation, "the agency has decided to move forward with other candidates." It’s disappointing that an organization funded by taxpayer dollars, which should be dedicated to upholding human rights, operates with such disorganization and lack of communication. Given how little we hear from the NY Human Rights Division, there needs to be more oversight and transparency in how they conduct their hiring processes and fulfill their mission.
