I applied online. I interviewed at Morrison Child and Family Services (Portland, OR)
Interview
The questions were provided beforehand which I very much appreciated! There were two interviewers. I liked the experience but decided to go with a group private practice instead. I have heard that community mental health counseling can be 'burnout city' which is why I went in a different direction. However, community mental health does offer a base salary and that is valuable.

Question 1
Incorporating social justice and equity into practice
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Morrison Child and Family Services (Portland, OR) in Aug 2021
Interview
The interview process was conducted by two Milieu Supervisors. Staff was friendly and personable. The hiring process took forever as I has to wait several months for the background check to clear. Overall, the interview process was pleasant and I was offered the job.

Question 1
What are some escalating strategies you would apply in these different scenarios?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Morrison Child and Family Services (Portland, OR) in Oct 2023
Interview
Only made it to the phone screen, was not asked to continue in the process. That's fine, but what was awful was the rejection letter I received. It was not formatted with my name, position I applied for, or signed by the hiring manager. The salutation read, "Dear [Candidate Name]". Someone just fired off a bunch of rejection letters and didn't bother formatting them at all. Very uncaring and unprofessional. Won't be applying with this organization again.
