      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Y (YMCA) (San Diego, CA) in June 2024

      Interview

      The interview was easy and lighthearted. The aquatics director is friendly and easy to talk to. Mentioned military (navy) and was smooth sailing from there. Job offer was extended after swim test was passed.

      The interview process was overall easy. You just need to have your certifications, you need to pass a breathing test, and you need to pass a swim test. Pretty easy interview.
