First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Kalamazoo College.
Director
First, a screening phone call, then a virtual interview. After that, there was an in-person 6-hour interview with faculty and students. A major red flag was that the Executive Director was late to the last two interviews, about 15 minutes, making everyone wait.
- Considering my background, how can I contribute to this role?
Financial Aid Assistant
It was a straightforward process. Since I was a student then, we first chatted on the phone, and afterward, I visited the office, and they gave me a tour. The atmosphere was quite pleasant.
- What are your post-graduation aspirations?
Campus Safety Officer
This was a one-on-one interview with the head of Campus Safety. Keep in mind the department is small, only nine people, and it's a very small campus with about 1500 students. Everyone knows each other. Be aware that from the moment you enter, you're being observed by campus safety, the deans office, and student involvement.
- Tell me about how you handle intense situations.
Writing Consultant
The interviews were all group interviews, with usually 3 people interviewing together. It was just one round of interviews that lasted about 30 minutes. You really needed to make sure you had the opportunity to talk during the group session so you could stand out as a candidate for the position.
- Could you tell us why you're interested in working at the Writing Center?
- What aspects of writing do you find appealing?
