I applied online. I interviewed at Summit County Children Services (Akron, OH) in Nov 2014
Interview
Phone interview and then face to face interview with 5-7 other administrators taking turns asking questions. A lot of paper work, background check, finger printing and typing speed test. They also have you shadow someone and come back and write what you observed.

Interview
I originally applied for a social work position in intake and never heard back. Over a month or two later, they contacted me and asked if I would be interested in an intake position. I was told by an employee the process would be two interviews; however, mine consisted of only one, lengthy interview. I believe it was because they were expedited the process due to short staff and training classes beginning soon. STAR method is important for their interviews. Several “if this happened, what is your response”. They also asked you to put tasks in order of importance. Overall the interview was a little more on the difficult side, but fairly average for social work agencies.
