First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Binghamton University.
Education Abroad Advisor
I had a virtual interview with the team which included the usual questions like 'tell me about yourself and why you're interested in this role'. After that, I was asked to come in for a half-day session where I had to give a presentation about education abroad. Then, I had back-to-back interviews with my potential supervisor, coworkers, and upper management. The team was really friendly and it was a positive experience.

AI Research Analyst
The interview process was fairly low-key, with a strong emphasis on technical skills due to the nature of the role. The interviewer inquired about my prior project management experience and the specific duties I handled.
- Can you share details about your past experience?
- Tell me more about what you did in project management.
- What were the specific tasks you performed?
Teaching Assistant
So, for the Undergraduate Teaching Assistant gig, it's a bit of a process. You apply online first. Then there's this first chat to see if you're into it, how you talk, and if you get the whole language teaching thing. If they like you, you'll have to talk about your teaching ideas, do some subject stuff, and then there's this panel interview where they grill you on teaching in general. They'll throw some 'what if' questions at you to see how you handle things. They also check your references. Finally, you chat with the head honcho to talk about future plans and if you're really committed. If all goes well, you get the offer and then there's onboarding, like orientation and learning the ropes and university rules. This is just a general idea, it might be a bit different.
- How would you help students who don't speak English well to communicate better and improve their skills?
Research Project Assistant
I got an email from the CS department about a job opening and the interview was set for the next week. They only set aside 20 minutes for each interview and did them all back-to-back. The technical questions they asked weren't related to the job description at all. I was interviewed by 3 people, even though I expected just one. Two of the interviewers were really nice and polite, as you'd expect in a formal interview. But one of them was super rude. He acted like what I was saying didn't matter and even looked at his phone once. He wouldn't even answer some of my questions. If he had somewhere better to be, maybe he shouldn't have been interviewing candidates. If this is the kind of professionalism they have in that department, it's easy to see why they struggle to hire and keep people.
