The interview was pretty straightforward. They asked some basic questions to see if I was a good fit, like if I enjoyed fitness and my reasons for wanting to join the company, and then they offered me the job right away.

Coding Technical
The interview process for the Programmer/Analyst position at Dartmouth was quite long and discouraging. It involved three interviews, a coding and analytics exercise, and then five professional references. The coding part was tricky because they wanted people to use SAS, but it's really expensive and most people don't have it on their computers, and they didn't offer a license or another way to do it, which made it hard for lots of candidates. After putting in weeks of work, I got a generic rejection email over three weeks after my last interview, with no feedback at all. It was disappointing given their focus on professionalism and education, because they didn't seem to respect candidates' time and resources.

I went through two phone interviews initially. After that, I was invited to the campus for a third interview round. The whole day was spent on campus with several interviews with both staff and students. I was told I'd hear back within a week or two, but then I was completely ghosted. It was really unprofessional for such a supposedly highly esteemed college.

The linear algebra tutor interview process is based on your past experience with linear algebra. First, it checks if you have taken the course, and second, it evaluates how well you performed in it. I personally found this process to be quite straightforward, but I do think that if you didn't do so well in the class, it makes it harder to get the job.
