The Blue Bench interview questions

If you can agree to meet for an observation day (which they call a second interview/shadowing day) you complete a phone interview. However, the second/main interview is NOT an interview. It is ONLY an observation day. Nobody asks you interview questions, you dress casually, and you go out with the canvassers from 2-10:30pm, watch your trainer knock on doors, then knock on your own doors 8-9.

2 interviews, 1 easy half hour, 1 more intensive panel. Both in person. Didn't get the job, which was fine, but they were 10 mins late to my first interview (coming in from outside, not that a prior interview ran over) and after second interview said I should hear in 2-5 weeks. After 7 weeks (7!) I checked in and got a reply days later that they'd hired someone else. Only 2 finalists, so not difficult to send an email saying "we're still in the process." Which is what other places I interviewed with did. Had I not checked in, I'm not sure they would have even remembered to let me know. And I found out later, they hired a 3rd person who didn't meet the application deadline or follow the same process as the other applicants. Night and day from where I work now. So, think carefully about the level of professionalism you're looking for. More concerning than my hassle, they have a contract with the public hospital so their advocates are often the first ones there. There is a very notorious case where a woman was assaulted by a police impersonator. By the time the actual officers got there, the BB advocate had told the victim that all cops and DA's are bad, system is corrupt, and that she shouldn't cooperate. So even with the police begging her to tell them so they could try and help her and stop the guy, nothing. I've since learned that this is not a one off, sadly. So again, think carefully about your own world view and the culture you want to operate in.
