I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at The Y (YMCA) (Putnam, CT) in Mar 2017
Interview
The interview process was very casual, just a brief meeting with one of the directors to get to know your experience with children. This is followed by a "shadow day" in the program.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
-Why do you want to work with children at the YMCA?
-What is your past experience with childcare?
-Do you have any siblings?
Easy process, friendly and inviting environment. Felt like I was having an easy talk with the hiring manager. Wanted to know my long term goals and how the company would support those goals.
first begin in a group interview and then moved onto department specific one-on-one interviews. from their you were offered a job in specific department. you were not always interviewed by your top choice.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Y (YMCA) (Sewickley, PA) in Sept 2024
Interview
I had a phone pre interview phone call with a lovely woman. It turned out that the hours did not fit into my schedule. If this change in the future I will currently reach out for an interview.
