California Regional Water Quality Control Board interview questions

I felt like I was on Fear Factor or Survivor. What I believed would be a normal standard interview turned out to be a popularity contest. There were six other finalists who showed up to the "interview" that I now would be competing against for points. At the start of the interview we were all seated in a large conference room and each of us would be taken to a room be interviewed by a staff member. We were given 10 minutes to read a question and provide a response to each interviewer. Obviously we would be rated on the best answer and sent off to another room to be interviewed by another staff member. At the end of these interviews we were told that a decision would be made by the end of the week. I still have not heard from them. It was a humiliating experience.

You could have a panel of up to 6 people when trying to move out of the Scientific Aide position. Apply, maybe wait about a month or so and then you might get a call. The process has changed since the original person in charge of the Aides retired.
