Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Ellucian.
Consultant
I had a screening with the recruiter first, where they asked about my basic qualifications. Then, I had a second interview with two managers, which was nice, but the recruiter was really pushy about scheduling even though I asked for flexibility because I was still working in the office. The final round was a panel interview with my potential team and manager. It started with a 10-minute presentation, and then the team asked some behavioral questions. They didn't have any questions about my presentation, though. A few days later, the same recruiter emailed to say I didn't get the job, and when I asked for feedback, they said there was none and it was "very close." It was a really frustrating experience because I got no scheduling flexibility despite explaining my situation, and I spent over 20 hours preparing for the interviews and presentation, only to be rejected with no feedback.

Senior Consultant
The interview process was really great and fast! I applied and the next day I had a recruiter call. Then, I had a manager interview the day after that, which was remote and about 30 minutes of behavioral questions. Two days later, I got an invitation for the final interview, which was scheduled for the next week. The final interview included four team members and the manager. It involved a 10-minute presentation on a topic of my choice, followed by 40 minutes of behavioral questions, and then 10 minutes for my questions. Everyone was super helpful and relaxed throughout the whole thing.
- If you were a car, what kind would you be and why?
Functional Consultant
The interview process had two steps. First was an online test, which was a logic and personality test using the SHL platform. It was pretty easy and findable online. The difficulty was average. The second step involved them asking about my visa status. It seems like they don't sponsor H1B visas, so I wouldn't recommend this job to foreigners. Nothing was too difficult.
