First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Marywood University.
Administrator
The interview process started off a bit weirdly when they rescheduled about two weeks out, which I thought was strange. When the interview finally happened, the vibe was really cold and they didn't seem interested in me at all. They asked me questions that expected a lot of experience, even though my resume clearly shows I'm a recent grad. It felt like they were just going through the motions, and it seemed like they already had someone else in mind. Some of the panelists didn't even show up. It was pretty humiliating and a total waste of my time. I decided to withdraw my application because I already had another offer, and I really couldn't see myself fitting into that cold, awkward environment.
- Describe a time you encountered an ethical dilemma at work.
Assistant Professor
I applied via email with my cover letter, CV, and references. I got a confirmation of receipt pretty fast. About 1-2 months later, they emailed back asking for letters of recommendation and wanted to know when would be a good time for a phone chat with the Department Chair. The Chair mentioned they were interested in interviewing me for the end of the following week. The interview involved flying out. There was a dinner with the faculty (search committee) where they asked me questions. The next day, I interviewed with the VP of Academic Affairs, gave a presentation to students and faculty, and then interviewed with the Dean. We had lunch with faculty afterwards, and that concluded the process. The VP called me with an offer within 2 business days.
- Could you explain your reasons for considering a move?
- What are your motivations for applying to this position?
- What can you tell us about your interest in relocating?
Assistant Professor
The interview process was pretty standard. I was asked some canned questions and then had to elaborate on some points. The main event was an on-campus interview, and thankfully, I got the job offer not too long after that. The whole experience was great; I really can't complain about the faculty or how they treated me.
- Could you answer some standard questions?
Graduate Assistant
Had a personal interview with open-ended questions. They reviewed my qualifications. Then, they gave an overview of responsibilities and expectations. It was exactly what I expected. I was well prepared for the position by the time we had finished the interview.
- What are your potential contributions to the department?
