I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at American Red Cross (Fargo, ND) in Mar 2015
Interview
Disorganized. I wasted my time interviewing with two people from SOUTH Dakota, before the North Dakota office finally realized I live in North Dakota and therefore should have talked to them. After my interview and background check had been done and I thought I was good to go, they referred me to a volunteer from the Fargo office to do ANOTHER interview, even though the office had the information they needed about me and I even talked a bit to the Fargo volunteer on the phone. Like my time is worth nothing?! Like I should trust an organization that can't get simple facts straight?!

I applied online. I interviewed at American Red Cross (Baton Rouge, LA) in Jul 2016
Interview
After applying the first contact was done by a recruiter. The second contact was a phone interview done with 2 Red Cross employees. Two to three weeks later there was a 3 person panel interview. If you took away the stress of trying acquire a job then the process was nice.

Question 1
How you go about taping into new area's for recruitment?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at American Red Cross
Interview
Multiple panel interviews with staff and volunteers. Staff alternated asking pre determined questions that often seemed inconsequential to the position. Staff used scenarios like trick questions to get responses. The interview process dealt more with what ifs than past experience. Interviewers expected applicants to know detailed processes specific to the company that would not be known to the public.
