      Senior Administrative Assistant III Interview

      5 Mar 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Poway, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at City of Poway (Poway, CA) in Aug 2023

      Interview

      Process took roughly a month from application to final interview. 1st step - test which consists of about 70 questions ( grammar, critical thinking , word animation, and using another software) test was ok, I felt great about it . If you do well on the test they will email you a few days later to set up a zoom HR panel interview . Questions are tad tricking and long, and HR is trained to have no emotions with your responses which made it hard to read . You’ll get an email a day or two after to schedule an in person which will be another panel with Department staff. The in person was easy, and more personal. However, they do not communicate if they decide to move forward with a different candidate. Which was disappointing. I had hoped they would at least let the other remaining candidates know that they went with someone else. I had to call to find out. Just know if you don’t get a response back the next day it means you did not get the position.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Ask about which systems you use. What priorities and task would you do when you are busy If a customer came into the office and you had to give an answer they didn’t like what would you do.
