I interviewed at Travis County, Texas

Interview

I applied online and within a week I was sent an email to interview. I interviewed a couple of days later and the interview was about 30min. I was called a couple of days later to interview again. I wasn’t able to interview due to the main person who was going to interview me being out. I was called a week later and had a phone interview. This was during COVID so things were a little bit longer during this time. Another week or two went by and I was offered the job.

Interview Questions
  • I was asked what was the last book I read.
