I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at National Yiddish Book Center (Amherst, MA) in Oct 2012
Interview
Went in for an interview with a staff member from both visitor and member services. They asked a series of questions to gauge if I could carry out the responsibilities for the position well. Helpful to have some knowledge of Hebrew or Yiddish. Good experience overall. Was in for training soon after
