      Development Interview

      29 June 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at City Year (New York, NY) in May 2015

      Interview

      Screening interview, then focus interview and then a top grading interview. Screening asks basic questions, like why are you interested in the role. The focus interview involves many people as they talk about specific skills. You'll have to be ready to demonstrate how your experiences have reflected those skills. The last part is top grading. You can be given different example work scenarios and have to answer how you would react.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They will ask about everything on your resume - and even ask about your educational experience in high school. Be prepared to talk in depth about everything, even if they don't go into it.
