Behavioral
This was a Skype pre-interview that lasted 30 minutes. Pretty standard interview questions about leadership style, "Tell me about a time" type of generalized questions. It was the Director herself doing the interview, it felt a bit awkward like she was going through the motions and checking off the boxes. At the conclusion of the interview she let me know that she would contact me by the following week. That was over two weeks ago. I certainly understand that she must be busy, but it is bad form to ghost an applicant who has given to their time. Even a cliche rejection letter is preferable. Makes me feel like I dodged a bullet.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process was super easy. First, I had a phone interview with about 8 questions, and it took around 45 minutes. The very next day, I was asked to come to campus for a more formal interview. This part was a bit different because I had to send in a paper about my advising philosophy and get a presentation ready. The interview itself was pretty standard, but getting ready for it was tough.

Behavioral Other
The interview was comfortable and relaxed. It was informative about the position and what's needed to be involved. They asked behavioral questions and some to get to know me. Dress code was business casual. The interviewer wanted to see if I would support students, like being involved in the community, and be a positive student advocate.
