[civsa] Group Evaluation Sheet

[Hannah Middlebrook]

Morning, Trent!

I attached all of my interview rubrics and interview questions. During our
group interview process we have three different breakouts that each last
twenty minutes. I listed them below with a little context of what happens
during each one. Let me know if you have further questions!

*General Question Room*
These are your basic interview questions. The questions are led by tour
guides on my leadership team and we ask popcorn style. We typically have
2-3 tour guides from the leadership team in the room scoring the applicants.

*Tough Question Room*
These are the questions our tour guides are asked regularly on tours that
are harder to message. We are looking for someone who can stay calm, not
freeze up, and still give an articulate answer. This is my favorite part of
the group process. I always walk way with some quotes from what applicants
have said that you would *never* want mentioned on a real tour.

*Mock Tour*
The applicants are partnered up with a current tour guide and given
instructions to walk for about 15 minutes and give a mock tour. We assure
them they are not being tested on facts (we can train that), but encourage
them to share their stories and favorite memories. Obviously just looking
for authenticity and how well they connect with the "prospective student".

At the end of the evening, the applicants scoring in the top half are
invited back for an individual interview.

Good luck and happy hiring!
