I applied online. I interviewed at Spirit Rock Meditation Center (Woodacre, CA) in Apr 2019
Interview
Very friendly interview with 2 women who were warm and engaging. The atmosphere in the office however seemed a bit tense. The questions were authentic and easy for me to answer.
The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Spirit Rock Meditation Center (San Rafael, CA) in May 2023
Interview
Not very 'Buddhist' in their hiring practices. HR declined my application sending a very generic, non specific decline email even though my experience aligned with the role. When I replied to the email kindly requesting for feedback on what led to the decision, they ghosted me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have minimum of 3 years’ professional experience with program/project planning and management? Do you have a strong knowledge of core Buddhist/Insight Meditation teachings and values, a passion for dharma, a sincere interest in the exploration of bringing mindfulness to all activities of daily life, and a strong interest in continued learning?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Spirit Rock Meditation Center (Los Angeles, CA) in Dec 2022
Interview
I had many rounds of interviews. They were very disorganized and rescheduled multiple times. In the end I felt the position was undefined and going to be extremely manual. They were all very nice, but it was not a match.
