Does anyone know what it’s like to work here? I have an interview coming up.

Librarian in the area but never worked there. I’ve heard mixed things.

It seems to really depend on the branch you get placed at which you don’t know ahead of time. They can also send you to other branches when needed. Some branches you end up more as a social worker than doing librarian work, which for some is a joy, for others not.

I interviewed and it was not really a friendly process, but that wasn’t really the libraries fault and more because it is a civil service job and have their system.

I passed the interview, but then got dumped into a pool of others. They did not explain this portion beforehand. I found out after I “passed” the interview. I ended up declining it when it reached my placement which was about two years later.
