I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AmeriCorps (Harrisonburg, VA) in Apr 2025
Interview
It was an online application then a phone call with a recruiter. Standard questions about past experience then a lot of information about the role, and was asked how it sounded/what I expected.
The interview process was very easy and it felt accessible. It was a while ago, but I think that it may still feel similar. The interviewer seemed pleasant and made the process comfortable.
