      Admissions Manager Interview

      30 Apr 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Miami, FL
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at City Year (Miami, FL) in Jul 2012

      Interview

      I had two interviews where they asked about my experience, what I knew about City Year/AmeriCorps and how my skills/experience made me the best candidate for the position. Their biggest concern was that since I had more of a communications background, I wouldn't enjoy the administrative aspect of the Admissions Manager role. They asked a lot of questions to make sure I would enjoy getting applicants through the admissions pipeline.

      Admissions Manager Interview

      18 Nov 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at City Year (New York, NY) in Nov 2018

      Interview

      Consisted of 3 interviews: a screening over the phone (1 hour), a video interview with 2 directors (1.5 hours), and an in-person interview with 3 other employees (1.5 hours). The process took a long time since they took a few weeks in between each to get back. I had one main point of contact after the first interview which was helpful for following up.
