I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Blood Cancer United (Los Angeles, CA) in May 2013
Interview
It's a 2 step process: a phone interview and then an in person interview. I felt like getting the in person interview means you have a pretty good chance at getting the position.
The phone interview asked the standard interview questions: team building, interests, goals, etc. It wasn't extremely casual, nor was it super professional. The in person interview asks a few more questions. It's definitely a lot more casual and laid back. Overall, a positive interview process.
I applied online. I interviewed at Blood Cancer United (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
My submission was reviewed by a recruiter who offered a brief phone interview to revisit application topics. I communicated online with recruiter and direct supervisor about my interests, relevant experience, and goals with the organization.
The coordinator of the intern program is also in charge of volunteer efforts, some that are on a regular basis. Where are some of your current priorities?
I had a screening phone call with the hiring manager. I then had an interview with the manager of the team over Zoom. The interview process was easy and straightforward. Make sure to do research about the position and non-profit beforehand.
Very positive, interviewer was helpful and knowledgable about the position. They wanted to know more about the kind of person you were. They were open to teaching you more about the position.
