Questions d'entretien chez Philadelphia Youth Network

It was relatively easy because it was their summer workready program for highschool student. As a highschool student you just need to send an application with a code attachment. This was what I remembered the process being about 5 years ago. It might have changed.

Multi step interview process. Takes about 2 weeks. There was a telephone pre screen. Interview with multiple people they asked a variety of questions included but not limited to work experience and educational background. They also asked why i was A good fit what skills do I possess

After I submitted an application, someone there called me to interview me on the spot, giving me zero notice or time to prepare, which was kind of frustrating and in my opinion, not very considerate to me as a candidate. I thought I messed up the interview, so was happy to receive an email asking me to prepare a mock-up of a press release. I did the work, sent it the next day, and waited. I never heard back, even after I followed up for feedback/news TWICE over the course of a couple of months. Never even got an acknowledgement of receipt. Super rude - it's one thing to ghost someone after a phone screen, but to have them do actual work for you and then never get back to them? Seemed shady and unprofessional, and it tarnished my opinion of the org.

Staff were very welcoming as soon as I walked in the door. They made me feel comfortable while waiting and communicated with me when they would be ready for the interview. During the interview, there were three people each of whom asked questions. It really felt like a conversation in which they explained parts about the position and allowed me to ask questions for clarification.

First there was a phone interview, then an in person interview and then a job offer. The interview is with two people and they were very nice. The phone interview was quick. They told me I wouldn't know if I had the job for about a week, which was tough because the job would start the next week and I already have a part time job. They actually contacted me through the phone and email about 3 days after the interview and offered me the job.

The hiring was easy. I had my interview at the South Philadelphia library, and they asked me questions like "What are your future goals?" or "Why do you want to work at the library?". Honestly so long as you volunteer at your library long enough for them to know you then you'll be set. I had volunteered for a couple months before I applied for the job. That was probably the main factor as to why I got hired.
