Entrevista
The interview process was well-handled and respectful of both my time and personhood. I initially applied for an Employment and Educational Specialist (EE) role and was offered the position. However, due to external factors, I was unable to accept it at that time.
Several months later, I saw a Youth Advocate (YA) role advertised on Indeed and decided to apply. Once again, the interview process was conducted thoughtfully and efficiently. The team was able to reference my previous application and interview, using that information to move me directly into the final interview round. This demonstrated a strong presence of mind, organizational memory, and an efficient, thoughtful approach to hiring.
The final interview was thorough and effective. It included a mock youth session, structured questions, and an opportunity for me to share my motivations for working with the organization. I felt that my potential contributions were truly valued.
When I received the job offer, the recruiter spoke to me with warmth and respect, making me feel genuinely welcomed and appreciated. It was clear that this organization not only values its mission but also the individuals it brings into the fold. I felt seen, respected, and like I would matter here.

Entrevista
Thorough, multi-step interview process. First step was 10 min phone screen, basic questions "Tell me about yourself." "Why are you interested in working for First Place". Second step: very short online Predictive Index quiz. Third step: 1 hour in-person interview with two Grant Managers in Oakland. Fourth step: project was assigned to me. They asked me to do research on 2 possible foundation leads, edit an email to a prospective founder. This assignment took ~2 hours. Fifth and final step: ~40minute interview with the Development Vice President. After not hearing back for over a week, I reached out to HR and was informed that they had gone with another candidate.

One pre-interview survey screen, and then an interview with two managers connected to the role. I heard back in about a week after my in-person interview. The interview was at the Headquarters in Oakland, though not all the positions in the Bay Area are based out of that office.
