Make sure you dress nice because it shows them that you are serious about your interview, they pay attention to this. Be honest, confident, and authentically you. Interviewers can be a little hard to read, but that doesn't mean you aren't making a good impression.

The first step was a phone call with the director to screen applicants. They asked about my salary expectations. I stated my desired amount, and they gave me their range but didn't specify where I'd fall within it based on my resume. I mentioned the amount was lower than I expected, and they questioned whether to continue the interview. We proceeded with the interview anyway, for practice. The job was reposted about a month and a half later, so I contacted the hiring manager to inquire about changes to the position. I received a brief, curt voicemail stating I wasn't selected to proceed previously and wouldn't be this time.

Behavioral

This is my second role at Eckerd; I was moved internally when my old department's funding was cut. Eckerd really tries to avoid layoffs during tough economic times. When I interviewed for my first position 8 years ago, it was over the phone because I was living out-of-state. I don't remember anything particularly hard about the interview, just that there were several people on the conference call who later had to all agree I was the best candidate for the job.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was long, but I was kept informed throughout the entire process. The first two rounds consisted of skype interviews (lasting from thirty minutes to an hour) and the last stage was an on-campus interview that lasted close to three hours.
