The interview lasted a half-day. I spoke with many of the hiring panelists in appointments back to back. A member of the department’s hiring team contacted me to set up a time. (If you don’t live in Yukon, initial interviews may be conducted by phone or Internet video.) Now, this was my chance to do some background research and to gather together everything I needed to come to the interview confident and prepared. It was my first experience with this interview style, so I knew I needed to prepare.
