I interviewed at Boys Town (Omaha, NE)
Interview
It was a lot of scenario questions like what would you if or name a time when. They wanted to be sure you could think fast. Two supervisors asked separate questions

Thank you for sharing your interview experience at Boys Town! We appreciate your feedback about the scenario-based questions and role-play activities. We're glad to hear that you had a positive interview experience.
Very calm and relaxed process. A lot of questions relating to youth behaviors and response scenarios. Manager was very straight forward. Only one interview necessary. Interview wasn't bad at all.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Boys Town (Oviedo, FL) in Apr 2016
Interview
The first interview was a digital one where you're asked a stock question and given time to respond. I actually found this harder than the face-to-face that's done for the second interview. Not to many curve balls though, just giving you situations and looking for the most appropriate reaction. Stay calm, describe the youth's behavior and offer more measured options and you're golden. Second interview was more direct, practical and logistical stuff.

Question 1
How would you react if a youth became angry and started calling you names?
