Application

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at American Cancer Society in Nov 2014

Interview

Applied online, got automatic on-line questionnaire response. Did that, then got a phone interview with about an hour of questions (very similar to online questionnaire). Has been a month and I haven't heard anything since (despite queries), so don't stop looking for other jobs while waiting to hear from ACS.

Application

I interviewed at American Cancer Society (Chicago, IL)

Interview

Initial phone interview. Situational questions about working with people and staying organized. Then came in to meet two individuals from the department. They were both very nice and the interview flowed as a conversation. Pretty easy if you are really personable and can communicate well. Process took about 2 weeks max.

Interview questions [1]

Question 1

All very basic questions that you could expect in any professional interview. The phone interview was the most difficult and more of a formality to make sure you aren't a joke. Give me an example of how you work in groups. Communicated with someone with a difficult personality. Why do you want to work here?
