There were 2 rounds to the interview process. After that, there was a lack of communication, but overall it was pretty average. It mostly involved talking about prior experience and what I plan on doing after I graduate, like which industry I'm interested in.

The interview process was good. I ended up getting the job. The interviewer was pretty rude and condescending, but my knowledge was enough to get me hired, so I don't really care what they thought. Overall, I'm happy with how things turned out. Thanks for your time.

Ghosted by interviewer after initial phone screen. A simple closure email as a follow up would have been appreciated. If this is a reflection of the experience of working at the University, I believe that this is a blessing in disguise.
