First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Everglades University.
Admissions Counselor
First, there was a phone interview with a coordinator, which was short and friendly. Then, I had my first interview in person with the director of the site, lasting about an hour. It was a standard interview, and the interviewer was nice. They asked me typical questions about my past work, my current goals, and where I see myself in five years. My second interview was right after the first, also in person, with the President of Admissions. He had me do a personality quiz. He asked me if I was Italian, saying he loves Italians and is married to one. When I mentioned my family came from the Middle East, he asked if I knew about an explosion in my home country before I was born. He got really annoyed when I said no, claiming it was the hardest thing he ever went through and couldn't believe I didn't know about it. Which is odd, because I wasn't even born then and it happened years before.
- Can you share an instance where you had to change how you lead?
- Tell me about your previous work experience.
- What are your current goals?
Admissions Counselor
The first interview was a phone call with the Director, and they asked a lot of questions so you should be ready. The second interview was online with the VP, which was more relaxed and straightforward. Overall, it was a good experience with professional communication and early information sharing.
- How would you initiate a conversation with a prospective student?
- What information would you provide to an individual interested in our university?
Instructor
First, you'll meet with the dean who's in charge of hiring. You'll need to present your resume. Then, we'll talk about your goals and how much you know about the school. We'll also discuss your past work experience in your field of expertise and ask for examples of your teaching experience. You should be ready to explain why you want this job and talk about your current or previous employment. Finally, they'll ask for some personal background info.
- Why are you interested in returning to higher education?
Director of Student Services
Got some last minute calls asking if I could come in that day. Then there were three interviews. Each time, I was kept waiting for over half an hour. One interview was even scheduled at the same time as another meeting, so after waiting for 30 minutes, it had to be cut short. I never got a return call or a follow-up email after the final interview, even after I tried to follow up myself. The whole thing seemed really dysfunctional and no one there seemed happy, which makes me think this is just how things are normally done there. I'd avoid this place.
- Ensure you interview them.
- Probe deeply and rely on your intuition.
