Interview process was formal, as it is with all state jobs. You must apply online through DAS (Department of Administrative Services), first, and then submit a paper resume and cover letter to the hiring manager. All of these instructions are on DAS and you must follow them to the T, otherwise they will disregard your application.
It takes a long time to hear back, so be prepared to wait 3 to 4 weeks to hear anything back. The interview process is not bad - it is usually a group interview with multiple interviewers from several departments. A lot of behavioral questions and a lot of note-taking; they have to take notes like crazy so don't get nervous if you notice this.
The interview lasted 30 to 45 minutes.
