I applied through a local job board posting for a City Manager position. In the first interview I was told that this position requires a robust real estate background and I would be more qualified for their Regional Manager position which is part time and still paid very well. After I agreed to continue the process with this second position we scheduled a second phone call. The next day I had a phone call to explain my skillset and why I would be a good candidate for this position. It was there I learned that this was an internship position and I explained that I am no longer in school and am looking for a paid job. This was not going to be a problem and after a few more light questions about my background, we scheduled a skype interview with a second manager. In my skype interview I was asked the same questions as the first phone call including what university I currently attend and when I expect to graduate. After explaining again that I am looking for a paid position and I feel this internship may not be a fit, I was reassured that this is paid. I was then given a basic research assignment of the rental climate in my City and asked to make a 4 minute pitch video 'selling myself' to the rest of the team. After finishing all the assignments I was asked to sign a contract called "The Flatbook Promise" agreeing to be honest with my manager and was given the job offer.
