      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Mercy Home for Boys & Girls (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2023

      Interview

      initial phone call (30 min), in-person interview (45 min), in-person shadow (2 hours), virtual interview (30 min), virtual interview (30 min). The process seemed disjoint and unorganized; likely recovering from COVID. Took a long time to hear back. Unsatisfactory.
