I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at US Census Bureau in Mar 2009
Interview
Scheduled interview at a government career fair held at my university, filled out basic questionnaire assessing skills and educational level, returned the next day for an interview. Never got an offer, but not too broken up about it as the interviewer didn't make the position seem particularly enticing.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How have you used statistical analysis in other positions you've had?
