I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Social Security Administration (Woodlawn, MD) in May 2020
Interview
Very typical of the government. It was a panel interview with 3 members of management. There were approximately 5 questions (Behavioral, situational, etc). They barely reviewed my resume or knew anything about me but I used the "tell me about yourself" question to refresh their memories.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Social Security Administration (Baltimore, MD) in Apr 2015
Interview
Applied 02/2015. Received a call from HR that my interview has been scheduled. Had an interview 04/06/2015 and started working on 04/20/2015. Interview lasted for 30 minutes. Questions about my current job at the time as to skills and knowledge I possessed and how they could be translated into the disability examiner job. Interview was quite easy.

Question 1
skills and knowledge I possessed and how they could be translated into the disability examiner job
I submitted an application. I was called in to take a timed, 3 section skills test. Though it's not a hard test, only about half of the people in the room passed. (My guess is some people aren't used to taking timed tests since having left college. However, since time management is key to this job, the ability to work quickly & accurately is important). Test results are given at the end of the test. You then schedule an interview for a different day. I was interviewed by a supervisor & case consultant. Interview questions were pretty standard.
