I applied through other source. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at EPA (Washington, DC) in Feb 2015
Interview
I had to submit a resume, cover letter and transcript. Thereafter, I was asked what in particular made me interested in environmental law, and what department in the agency would best suit my interests and abilities.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why are you interested in environmental law? How can you contribute? How do you feel about writing? What are your strengths?
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at EPA in Mar 2010
Interview
It was a really simple interview, it was more like the job was being sold to me. The interviewer talked more than I did. He never even asked some of the basic interview questions particularly for a sales type job. I felt like with him talking so much I would lose my train of thought and actually ended giving some of the worst answers I ever have in an interview. Honestly, if I was interviewing me I wouldn't have hired me. But in the end he all but offered the job on the spot and even said the interview was mostly just to make sure I seemed professional.
