I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at SEIU (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2015
Interview
We had a group interview in Chicago, there were about 30 people present in a small room and we all had to explain our backgrounds. About one third of the people present had union organizing backgrounds, and the main interviewer basically told the group that the rest of us with Political non-union organizing backgrounds were basically useless. So as a political organizer (5 years of campaign experience) I had to sit through an embarrassing 3 hours with only a cold taco they provided for lunch for comfort. Why did they even bring me in if my experience was useless. Room meat.

Interview
30-minute initial phone interview. Followed by a small panel interview two weeks later. 3 interviewers and myself. Questions relevant to the position. The phone interview was more difficult than the panel interview.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SEIU (Saint Paul, MN) in Jun 2019
Interview
Standard group interview format that is common for union organizing jobs. A panel of four people on the hiring committee led the interview of 15 applicants for five and a half hours. Aside from going an hour and a half over the scheduled time, during the one on one part the interviewer couldn’t keep her eyes open between asking questions. Total mismanagement of the schedule and a waste of the applicants time.

Interview
Most unprofessional organization I have EVER dealt with. The recruiter or hiring manager (I'm not even sure) called me at 11p twice to set up interview times. Granted, she's on the west coast and I am on east, but plan ahead. Totally unacceptable to call an applicant at that hour. Then, we set up a time and date for last Monday. I called her, she sent me to voicemail and then text me "give me 10 mins." 45 MINS later I text again and said do you need to reschedule? She said yes. Rescheduled for today at 4p. She's not on the call AGAIN and I text her at 430 and told her this is all very unprofessional and an indication of how SEIU-UHW runs. She text back and said they are busy trying to staff 3 locations. Not my problem-don't set up interviews and NOT show up for them!
