I was also asked why I wanted to pursue volunteering for child care. Jill really made me think about what I was getting myself into rather than expect to plunge in. There were two rounds of interviews as several were weeded out. One question that stood out was describe an instance where you approached conflict at work and how you resolved it. In retrospect, I thought that question was necessary because that gives the interviewer a good idea of how mature and much poise a candidate has in resolving difficult decisions, which is universal in any workplace you go to. I had the option to choose among three out of state projects, since AmeriCorps VISTA is national program offering projects in all 50 states. This deals with improving commuties in several arenas - affordable housing, education, health care, crime prevention, and others.
