I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at The Y (YMCA) (Milton, MA)
Interview
We had a group interview which consisted of about 17 people in one room. In the beginning we answered a questionnaire which we did not finish in the beginning. After we did some group activities and ice breakers.
Very casual, my interviewer kept things focused on my ability to work with children, public speaking, and working on a team. If you have any experience with working with kids, be sure to have some stories of how you have dealt with incidents relating to behavior.
Group interview with other canidates and panelists. Mostly get to know you style and situtational tasks. You will be interviewing alongside other canidadtes so make sure you stand out and seem unique. Howeer don;t overdo it and remain humble and willing to learn.
Fairly relaxed, standard questions related to your interest and experience with early childhood education. They didn't really go over my resume- many workers were in high school, so their expectations likely weren't high.
