      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Y (YMCA) (Williamsport, PA) in Nov 2020

      Interview

      The interview was uncomfortable and cold. We interviewed with the lights off??? It was a little intimidating but that was the personality of the interviewer. They mainly asked about childcare experience and how you would discipline a child. It was very easy to get hired since their turnover rate was high. According to Stars the requirement is at least 2 years experience of childcare but sometimes this was overlooked due to desperation to hire.

      Very easy and laid back, wanted to get to know you and why you want to work with children at the YMCA. Overall they were very nice. I enjoyed working there as well.
