Application

I applied online. I interviewed at US Department of Veterans Affairs (Minneapolis, MN) in Sept 2022

Interview

The first round of interviews with manager and second round was with manager and director. Both were done via videoconference. Follow up came from the manager in the form of an email and then a formal offer letter from HR. The entire process is very lengthly. Don't quit your job until they actually give you a start date.

Interview Questions
  • Situational or scenario based questions. What would you do if you disagreed with your supervisor/coworker on a project? Give me an example of time when you had a deadline and were not able to finish your work or were given additional tasks to finish before the deadline.

Long interview and hiring process. There are a lot of steps and levels to go through before you are actually hired and have a start date. The interviews are very to the point and they ask the same questions to each candidate to make it fair and equal

I received a text message asking if I was interested in one of the work from home positions. I received information to log into zoom, but I haven't been linked with any one concerning my interview. Could you give me any tips for getting this interview.

I have a friend who recently had his Saas Sales position terminated. He’s still technically employed there until end of month so he can look at other roles internally if he wants. Question: if you’re interviewing externally and are asked why on the job hunt, should he say he’s been laid off? He still is technically an employee. Would the hiring company go back and check in with current employer for referrals/resume validity?
