I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at H&R Block (Castro Valley, CA) in Dec 2012
Interview
They pretty much hire anyone with a pulse that has decent tax knowledge. All you really have to do is pass their Income Tax Test with 80% or more correct. I took the class and passed it on the first try. Very basic questions. There ended up being people who passed it that had a lot of trouble preparing actual tax returns so it should probably be a lot more difficult.

Question 1

I applied online. I interviewed at H&R Block in Jan 2026

They send a scheduling link. You speak with them for 30 minute and they'll get back to you with an offer. Tried reaching back out and was completely ghosted after receiving an offer.

Question 1
Ask about you and your experiences. Super easy interview, need no preparation honestly.
Easy. After I finished the hours for the CTEC, I was interviewed. The interview was online through Microsoft teams. All they asked was my availability and professional experience. No hard questions. I was interviewed by the Multi Team Leader and District manger.
