Some companies use an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to screen resumes for keywords.
2. Initial Screening (Phone/Video Screening)
A recruiter or HR representative conducts a short (15–30 min) call to:
Verify basic qualifications.
Discuss salary expectations, availability, and interest in the role.
Explain the next steps.
3. First-Round Interview (Technical/Behavioral)
May be conducted by a hiring manager or team lead.
Behavioral Interview: Questions focus on past experiences (e.g., "Tell me about a time you handled a conflict at work").
Technical Interview (if applicable): Role-specific questions or problem-solving tasks (common in tech, finance, engineering).
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Goodwill in Feb 2020
Interview
The interview process was professional and they made me feel comfortable talking to them. Many interviews I have had in the past made me feel very intimidated to talk to the employers, but I was very impressed with the interview and how easy it was to communicate with the interviewer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One thing they asked me was why I wanted to work at the company and what I could bring to the table.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Goodwill (Buffalo, NY) in June 2018
Interview
There was literally no interview, they just asked some basic questions. It is an unpaid internship. so you should have a plan what you want to work on, and let them know to see if they have the need.
