American Institutes for Research Director Interview

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Washington, DC (took 3 weeks)

The interview and hiring process were well handled by the HR department. They moved things along at a fair pace and communicated well with the executive recruiter who set up the interview. They did everything they said they were going to do. They were generous with the flight cost and hotel cost reimbursement. They repaid the expenses very quickly too. They did a good job explaining the role to the recruiter. They answered every question that I asked and didn't dodge any issues. They painted an accurate picture of the work and the environment. When I asked to spend some time with some of my future colleagues, they didn't freak out and the people I met with were gracious through the process.
