We were asked a series of questions and had to write out responses in pencil on full sheets of paper. We were given between 5-10 minutes per question. The questions were things like: describe a time when you overcame a problem at a previous employer and describe how you did it. They were pretty specific and in-depth questions. They all required lengthy responses.

I applied online. I interviewed at Oregon Department of Human Services (Beaverton, OR) in January 2017.

Interview

Came in on time and was met with intense sense of disorganization and major attitude from a current Benefit Specialist that was designated to walk the interview participants back to the room for the interview. I wasn't sure where her flippant irritated demeanor was coming from, it definitely left a horrible taste in my mouth about ever having to share a work environment with this individual.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oregon Department of Human Services (Salem, OR) in September 2016.

Interview

There were two rounds of interviews for job candidates, plus a take-home writing test.

The first round of interviews was with the hiring manager for the communications section, plus other members of the communications staff. I was given a preview of the questions a day in advance. Overall, I did well in the first round.

Finalists were advanced to the second round of interviews with the hiring manager and his bosses. I got the impression that the hiring manager’s bosses didn't know what they wanted. They seemed to be making up questions on the spot.

I didn’t get the job.

The process varies from office to office, but there is one common format. You apply for a position online. Depending on qualifications, you may be invited to an interview. The interviews may be group interviews, or depending on the size of the candidate pool, there may only be one interviewee. However, regardless of the interview format, there are usually at least 2 interviewers (I've personally seen as many as 7 interviewers). Depending on how well it goes, or on the size of the candidate pool, there may be a second, or even third, round of interviews.
