I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at First 5 Santa Barbara County i (Santa Barbara, CA) in Jun 2011
Interview
paper, panel interview, second interview with director. It took a while because it goes through the whole county process but once it got moving it was quick. The panel was really knowledgeable so you really need to read the current strategic plan, website and know about their structure and funding to do well in the interview. The staff is very caring and choses fellow staff very carefully. Dont presume who to direct your attention to when speaking. They care what all levels of staff think in the hiring process.
