I applied online. I interviewed at City of Boston (Boston, MA)
Interview
One interviewer was clearly doing other things on her computer from the very beginning of the interview. I had made it to the final round, but the staff member in the interview who seemed to be making the ultimate decision was not paying attention to my answers for the entire interview and it was distracting.

Submit a cv and cover letter, then do a 30 minute call, followed by reaching out to my references. Interview questions described below. What is my interest in the position. How I would handle having data at a larger geography but needing data for a smaller geography (like Boston or a place within Boston), and my research background.
