I have an interview with the CDC and I wanted this job for a while now. Any insight on HR questions they may ask or how? Like is it situational? I know it’s a panel of 7 and that’s it. Anything else I need to know.

I would be very comfortable with the field of medicine and the impact of their mission for protecting the public. Of course, everything surrounding COVID is fair game as well.

What is the level of the role? Focus on the STAR method. Have 5 great STAR based scenarios ready to go.

Like any interview, you should be able to thoroughly understand the business and their mission. Tie the mission to your answers.

Good luck!

I had an interview at Accenture for a business analyst position, and I gave all of the situational and behavioural based answers. I thought I was already selected because everything went well, but I received an email stating that I did not pass the technical skills round. I'm just not sure where I went wrong. Anyone experienced the same feeling that we had given our best effort and that we had already made it, only to find out that we had not been chosen? It really hurts.
