J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez IRS (New York, NY) en mai 2023
Entretien
The interview process began with a phone call to schedule an interview, then a link is provided for the interview. I was told this was the only interview I would be subjected to. During the interview, it is optional to turn on camera or leave off as the interviewers will read a series of questions and take notes on the answers I provided. Once interview is completed, you may ask questions. There is no information of next steps, when the hiring date is expected nor any details as to what happens after. The interview seemed like a mock training interview for the IRS staff to practice on those applying. It was very impersonal and seemed like the interviewers had no interest in process or the candidates.

How do you deal with a single parent househould who underreported income and cannot pay the taxes owed due to misfiled tax report.

I attended a direct hiring career event for LB&I in April 2024. I was interviewed by a panel of 3 senior revenue agents, they asked me behavioral questions (tell me about a time when you faced a stressful situation, tell me about a time when you had to juggle multiple deadlines, etc.) and also questions on which tax forms I had experience with.

1. Describe difference between a temporary and permanent adjustment. 2. Which schedule in the tax return pertains to the Balance Sheet 3. How would you prepare to start an audit.
SLOW. From submitting my resume to an interview went quick, job offer was slow. In person interview was just six-questions, but still lasted an hour. Both people from the IRS were very friendly though.
