      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Y (YMCA) (Union, NJ) in Sep 2018

      Interview

      The process was much like any of the other ones for an after school program leader. I knew they were really trying to find someone, but I answered honestly and was given a higher title than what I'd applied for.
