The interview process is more of a getting to know you kind of vibe to it. But at the same time you should go prepared about the mission and vision of the particular department and how you can contribute to it.

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at University of San Diego (San Diego, CA (US)) in May 2017.

Interview

Our interview was with two ladies that were in lateral positions to the one applied for. It was over the phone and was scheduled the last 30 minutes. The last 10 minutes were left for me to ask any questions to them about the position. Very friendly individuals.

Interview

I applied through the job board posting. The online portal requested detailed experience. I received a phone call about 2 weeks after I applied online to interview that next week. I came in for an hour long interview that was split into two parts. I walked out with contact information to follow up with for skills testing that I completed the next day. I was emailed later that week to call and schedule a second interview with someone who was out of the office when I came in before. The second interview was very quick and to the point. I met with my prospective boss again who informed me that I was a finalist pending reference checks. 2 of my 3 references were emailed the next week. I was contacted by HR after that with a tentative offer pending background and education checks to start in 2 weeks.

Interview

Met with two interviewers, both students and part of the rainbow educator program, who were kind and if anything not comfortable with being interviewers. The interview lasted about 20-30 minutes, where they asked questions from a set list. They did not give a lot of verbal or nonverbal feedback, but were attentive and gave me time to think and answer the questions in my own time. They walked me out and thanked me for my time. About a week after I was accepted.

Interview

Bizarre interview process. Just weird. Applied online. Hoped. Moved on. Six months later, got called out of the blue by an angry woman who thought a UCSD research person wouldn't work at a liberal arts school. Gave up hope. Said thanks. Two months, got a surprise technical phone interview. Answered some basic Linux questions. Didn't hear anything for two weeks. I called them this time. They said something like, "We are still in the process of interviewing our most qualified candidates such as yourself." Never heard anything back. I am convinced the IT department here is crazy.

Application

Not well organized, seemed like they were hiring at the last minute and trying to get a body into the role. Interviewing team didn't seem to be communicating with each other.

Interview

Group interview with skits about how you would respond to specific situations on the job and working together to hire a potential candidate. The individual interview was held by the schedule coordinator and two employees. Some questions were straightforward, others were odd.

Interview

Starts with a group interview process. Former employees sit at the tables with you and talk to you. Very casual. Some group questions are asked that are made to see how you work as a team. Second interview is done by director and a couple of former employees. They ask some very basic questions, and it is very casual.
