I applied online. I interviewed at City of New York (New York, NY) in July 2017.

Interview

They informed me that I was selected for an interview. The interview was scheduled and I attended. It was a group interview and it felt more like a conversation. Really appreciated the opportunity to discuss my work experience. Heard back from them about two weeks later and was presented a conditional offer. I accepted but still waiting for final approval and signatures for this position to become official.

Interview

Emailed them, got called into a panel interview. Arrived to a panel of people who interviewed me for two hours. Frankly I realized 30mins into the interview that everyone on the panel wasn't sure how to gauge a UX person. They were asking me system admin questions and I wasn't sure why. Luckily I'm pretty solid with linux but we didn't discuss UX needs of the role.

Interview

The interview was pretty good. I was interviewed by three people and they all asked me about 4 questions each while they wrote down everything I was saying. They asked me about my experience and why I want to work for them. Being in the field of organizational psychology, it was my dream job to create and develop exams for the city. I thought the interview went well but after not hearing from them for a month, I accepted that I did not get the job. I reached out to them by email and phone and no response. Interviews are difficult as you do not know what type of person they are looking for and who else you are competing with to get the position. Maybe I talked too much, talked too little, said the wrong thing, was misunderstood or did not fit with their department culture.
I would suggest to at least let the candidates know they did not get the job instead of ghosting them.

Pretty basic interview went over resume, writing sample and qualifications. i interviewed in early Sept and still waiting (I know they called all three of my references) so i'm not sure if i didn't get an offer or if they are just slower to give back a response. Was interviewed by two people within the torts division.

In the second round questions were related to job responsibilities were not that difficult to answer but they also asked me questions which are not a part of my job role. I had to reconfirm about the position they were interviewing for. Secondly, they dint even have my resume during the interview. After a while, they informed me that they can find better candidates locally and rejected my application.
