The interview was actually enjoyable. Upbeat and swift, but extremely informative and transparent. The district manager was interested in my questions and seemed genuinely interested in my abilities and how I would fit into the work culture.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at H&R Block
Interview
Rec'd call from HR dept that I would be interviewing with Regional manager. Was asked typical HR questions at first nothing creative or challenging, expected more. But superficial was the tone, nothing that would have given them insight into my ability as a leader. Was told I could ask questions. When I started asking specific questions relating to the goals of district, my targets, and company overall goals, I got blank stares and lots of "corporate koolaid rhetoric". I only had 6 minutes to ask my questions then was told my time was up, they had other candidates waiting. Guess you shouldn't challenge answers or ask too much.

Interview
The face to face interviews are panel interview. All interviews use situational based questions, "tell me about a time when". Your answers should be in the STAR format, tell them the situation, the task, the action you took and the results. DO NOT tell them what you would do, you have to tell them about the specific thing you did do.
