Behavioral Presentation
The person who would have been my supervisor called and emailed me to set up an interview. I then had a phone interview with about five people who each asked me one to two questions. This interview lasted about twenty minutes. About a week or two later, my would-be supervisor invited me for a campus interview. This interview lasted a full day, from 8 am to 5 pm. During the campus visit, I met one-on-one with many different people and also gave a presentation that was about 45 minutes long. My would-be supervisor was very friendly, professional, and organized, and I would have loved working for her. She made sure to schedule breaks for me during the long day. Everyone I met was friendly and courteous. About three weeks after my campus interview, my would-be supervisor called to let me know they chose another candidate and apologized for the delay. She was professional and friendly throughout the process, and I appreciated the phone call about the rejection.

Behavioral Presentation
This role involves a lot of committee-based hiring, with members from unrelated divisions present. The process typically includes a phone interview followed by an in-person interview with the hiring committee, where each member asks questions. It's beneficial to be personable and engage the committee with humor, as many may not be professional interviewers. The selection process can be lengthy, often taking two weeks or more.

Presentation Behavioral
The interview process spanned four days and included meetings with administrators, faculty, and students. I also had to give a presentation on my research. I met with the associate dean of faculty recruitment and then with the faculty in my department. Some faculty were super helpful in getting me ready for the admin meetings and even helped with the negotiation, which was really great.

Behavioral Technical Group Presentation
Got an interview through a referral. Had two 1-on-1s with department leaders, then a group interview with the creative team, and finally an interview with the department executive. The VP offered me the role after that, but then it went totally silent. Pretty much ghosted after the fourth interview.
