I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Birmingham City University (Birmingham, England) in Aug 2025
Interview
Standard interview process. 45 minute panel interview around the job criteria's core competencies. Followed by a 20-30 minute teaching session with students, staff sat in as well, but not the same as the panel interview. Got the impression that the department was undergoing a restructure and they were interviewing far more candidates than a typical shortlist of 6.
