      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at FEMA (Washington, DC) in Nov 2019

      Interview

      Panel Interview. 4 including the Chief of Staff Recovery Division, which i felt was excessive considering the questions were behavior/standard questions. They literally read word for word a standard FEMA form which was excessive imo.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Can you use Microsoft/Office tools? How do you work when you have competing sets of responsibilities?
