At Ellucian, interviews are behavioral. They ask you to talk about real-life scenarios. The questions usually start with something like 'can you tell me about a time when you dealt with a situation like...' and then you're supposed to describe a situation related to the role and explain how you handled it.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

I spoke with the hiring manager, who is a VP, then three other VPs, and then the SVP of the group. After that, I met with the team. Most of these conversations were over the phone or video chat. The discussions largely centered on my skills and leadership background, as well as my academic history and understanding of the market.

Behavioral

I had a lot of phone interviews, and they all focused on my background and how I approach things. It felt like a mutual evaluation of fit, not just them assessing me. Overall, it was a good experience, though there were quite a few conversations. Scheduling was efficient, so the time between interviews wasn't long.
