Entrevista
Available on the non-profit section of Craigslist, Clean Water Action posted a job working for clean water in Michigan. I called the office and I was scheduled for an interview during the initial phone call for the next week, you can also apply online and they will contact you. Before your initial interview you fill out a formal application but if you bring a resume it is a lot easier and you don't have to complete the entire application. The interview was more of an informal conversation. The local manager goes into detail the organization, the specifics of the job and the local office, and asks a few questions about experience, your previous work related to their organization, and allows ample time for you to ask questions. Then you go on the actual interview which is a "second interview/field canvassing day". You go with an experienced canvasser and observe the job then you have 2 hours of practice with the canvasser and the final hour is a solo session. After the day you meet with the field officer you canvassed with and the manager and make a hiring decision. You canvass with another person and have a check-in canvass day at day 4.

Nothing out the ordinary, you don't need to know any background about the organization in terms of organizational structure. Just be prepared to talk about what you put on your resumé.
It consisted of an Initial interview (around 30 minutes) on zoom and then in-person trial run. Here I walked around with a current employee and was shown the ropes before getting to try the job myself.

Entrevista
Vague job description for "Public Health Internship" did not describe a canvassing role wherein you travel various distances going door-to-door using strong sales tactics in rotating locations after dark. I was told you would eventually be doing this independently, and your partners/teammates would be in other areas within some proximity but not directly with you. This could be incredibly dangerous for anybody, but especially any marginalized people. I was driven an hour away from Providence, RI, to shadow the canvassing, and if I did well, I could begin canvassing, for which I would receive a stipend. The initial travel and shadowing did not appear to be eligible for compensation. Everyone seemed nice but the job description for this role was far too vague.
