First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Connecticut College.
Assistant Professor
It was a typical interview for an academic job, a full day with hardly any breaks. Lots of meetings, and a lot of smiling. We were given a campus tour, which highlighted its beautiful features. The views of the Thames River were really stunning.
- Can you describe how you would foster an inclusive classroom environment?
Director
The hiring team was nice and positive, but the process was pretty disorganized. I arrived a bit early to an empty office. I met with different panels, but didn't know who would be there beforehand. The follow-up was strange, including a last-minute request to drive 3 hours to meet the President, then that meeting was cancelled due to her schedule, and I got a curt rejection email weeks later.
- Is the salary we're considering appropriate, or can we offer you less?
Generalist
The interview process lasted a few rounds. First, I interviewed with the head of the department. Next, I interviewed with members from other departments. Good experience overall. Mainly behavioral questions asked.
- Tell me about your background.
Assistant Professor
The interview was about 30 minutes and was virtual. They asked about my main research paper and my teaching interests. It was a pretty standard academic first round interview.
- Could you tell us which core courses you'd be willing or able to teach?
