      Anonymous employee
      Washington, DC
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at U.S. Department of State (Washington, DC) in May 2015

      Interview

      The interview process was welcoming. The interviewers were very polite and asked fair questions as it related to the job announcement. It made it very easy to answer the questions and the environment was very calm. The questions were focused on my previous work experience and how well I was able to manage individual schedules.

      Administrative Assistant Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Shreveport, LA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at U.S. Department of State (Shreveport, LA) in Sept 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was weird. A man invited me to the location, just him and I. I was feeling very uncomfortable in that situation since we were the only people in the building on that day and I am a female.
