I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at State of Alaska (Juneau, AK) in Feb 2011
Interview
I was contacted on off-hours by a former co-worker. She was filling a position and was wondering if I was interested for an interview. We worked well together in the past, so I accepted the interview. The room was cozy. My co worker and the director was there, as well as an Anchorage office worker via teleconference. They tested my database. and language knowledge as well as business practices.
Tips for others?
1. Dress sharp. If you go to church, that is the way to dress. Clean cut and tidy.
There were two rounds of in person meetings with different groups of people that I would interact with regularly. I was asked questions that ,ranged from situational responses to technical experience and expertise.
