Interview
Skipped recruiter process for the most part. Interviewed with manager. Straight forward questions be engaged ask questions. Express your abilities knowledge and interest. If you don't show the willingness to learn and pursue in the interview then you have already lost

Question 1
Give me a time you were successful and a time you were not
a few questions with hr and also branch manager. Did not have to interview in person only over the phone. Nothing concrete or hard-hitting. A lot of back and forth waiting for a position to open but I eventually got a job.
I met with the branch manager on-site. She described the duties of the position and asked a few questions. Pretty straightforward. I didn’t get offered the job, but I appreciate that they let me know in a timely manner.
