The committee was super friendly, down-to-earth, and honest. I was interviewed by a panel of three people. They asked me relevant questions and I went through about 5 rounds of questions from each of them. They offered me water and it was very low stress.

Behavioral Presentation Other
I had a very friendly and accommodating interview process. I flew in and got a rental car to get to Storm Lake. That evening, I had a casual dinner with the committee at a local place. The next day was packed with interviews with deans, the department chair, HR, the committee, and other faculty who wanted to meet me. I also taught a lower-level Spanish class. The university paid for everything: my flight, food, rental car, and hotel. A student gave me a campus tour, and I had lunch with some Spanish majors. They also arranged for a real estate agent to show me around town so I could get a feel for housing costs and the general area. The whole visit was super busy and went by fast, but the interviewers' friendliness really helped ease the stress.
