I applied online. I interviewed at Smithsonian (Washington, DC) in Jan 2017
Interview
The interview was friendly and laid-back. They calmed my nerves. The employees clearly love their job and it showed. It went so well and, luckily, I got the position. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity, really.
Interview with multiple museum team members. Each asked individual questions and the interview wasn’t too long. They were engaging and the questions weren’t too difficult. I found myself not stressing too hard after that.
