Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 4 meses. Fui entrevistado pela New York Public Library em ago. de 2015
Entrevista
I, as others have reported, had an initial interview with a condescending individual who seemed to be a contract representative hired to conduct screenings. Nonetheless, I was invited for a follow-up panel interview in the HR offices.
The panel was fortunately much friendlier and asked general questions one would expect for a public librarian position. I was told that I would hear back by the month's end, but nothing so far. I wish NYPL would at least update their online portal to reflect their decision.

Entrevista
I met with an HR person, a Branch Manager, and two librarians at the branch where the opening was. They asked a series of questions and gave me time to ask them questions. They did not give me a tour of the branch.

One month on average. First interview with manager about my experience, second interview with a panel of future coworkers to get to know me. Applying through pinpoint was daunting, but I reached out through linkedin as well.
