PROVIDER SELECTION RESOURCE | PART 2 OF 2
Still defining your approach? → Start with Part 1: Choosing the Right Provider to get a resource that helps you identify your priorities and select the right interview style to match.
You’ve defined your project. You know what kind of support your organization needs. You’ve even narrowed down your top provider candidates and thought through a provider interview approach.
Now what?
It’s time to lead a provider interview, and it’s not your typical job interview.
At Catalyst:Ed, we often hear from nonprofit and education leaders who feel unsure about how to approach provider interviews. What should you ask? How do you know who’s the best fit? What should you listen for?
That’s exactly why we created Part 2 of our Provider Selection series: a focused resource that helps you prep with confidence and ask the right questions to get real insights for your decision-making.
🔍 New Resource: Prepare for Provider Interviews Like a Pro
Provider interviews are about more than just checking qualifications — they’re about exploring fit, mindset, and approach. The right conversation can surface how a provider thinks, solves problems, and partners with organizations like yours. This resource will help you:
- Get clear on what prep work to do before the interview
- Rethink common interview questions to better fit provider conversations
- Ask deeper questions to find out if the provider is the right fit for you
You’ll be better prepared to have provider interviews that are thoughtful, focused, and aligned with your team and goals.
A little preparation can go a long way in finding the right fit.
