The interview process was lengthy and frankly useless. I went through several interviews for a position in the global programs department. The hiring manager, who insisted on handling the interviews themselves instead of HR, ended up ghosting me. I never got a decision even after I followed up.

Behavioral
My interview experiences at Boston University for student positions have always been good, and the CSC office is the same way. The Director, Asst. Director, and interviewing students create a welcoming atmosphere, making me feel valued and at ease, which helped me focus on my answers rather than my nerves. They also make an effort to connect with you personally.
Confirmed questions1 question
- To ease candidates, they often ask icebreaker questions like 'What song best describes you?' or 'If a movie were made about you, who would play you?'
