Pacific Forest Trust interview questions

I initially had a 15-minute phone screening with the COO, which primarily focused on confirming that I was comfortable working on-site five days a week. Soon after, I was asked to complete a questionnaire. Three weeks later, I received an email from an administrative assistant asking me to schedule the same initial phone screening I had already completed. After clarifying this, another two weeks passed before a different administrative assistant reached out to schedule a Zoom interview with the Executive Director. That interview lasted about 30 minutes and consisted mostly of fairly basic questions. A week later I was invited to an in-person interview—but the earliest available date was nearly four weeks out. When I attended, I again met with the Executive Director and was asked many of the same questions from the previous conversation, with little indication that the process had progressed. Two months later I discovered the position had been filled, but I never received any communication from the organization informing me that I was no longer under consideration. The overall experience gave the impression of an interview process that lacked coordination, internal communication, and respect for candidates’ time.
