For a large chunk of the interview, the manager explained what it's like working for SCI and in a mortuary/cemetery. He wanted to make sure I knew exactly what to expect being in this environment. There was one interview, basic questions about work experience and education. No questions that make you think, like "tell me a time when you displayed leadership." Super easy.
