📼 One of the first things you'll learn about Liberty Hill Foundation when you begin your interview prep is that it was founded on the concept of building people power and amplifying the voices of those closest to pain and injustice. This thread has been at the center of their work for the past 40 years, and they're as committed as ever to fighting for everyone who is marginalized in our society. But, like Courtney says, “At our core, we're a community.” And when you join Liberty Hill, you become a part of a growing team committed to advancing social change fueled by the values of solidarity, justice, transparency, collaboration, excellence, and inclusion. You also become a “Hiller” who recognizes that the fight for progress is a marathon, not a sprint. So bring your passion for the issues of racial justice, youth and transformative justice, environment and climate justice, economic and housing justice, and LGBTQ and gender justice to the table for your interview.
📼 When applying for a job with Liberty Hill, keep in mind that while each interview is unique to each role, the process typically includes a review of your resume by the HR team, followed by an initial phone screening interview conducted by an HR representative. Once a candidate moves past this phase, next comes the interview with the departmental hiring manager, followed by a panel interview conducted by relevant staff from various teams. Once a decision is made, an offer letter goes to the candidate to finalize the interview process.
