Behavioral Case Presentation
The interview process was really smooth and felt very organized, like they had put a lot of thought into it. I actually had a good idea of the questions that would come up. It also helped me think about how I'd collaborate well with the team.

I sent in my application online back in January. Around mid-March, I got a call to set up a phone interview, which happened on March 28. Since I've got a ton of experience in study abroad, the questions were pretty typical for this kind of role. It was a bit chaotic with five people on the call, hard to keep track of who was who and what they were asking. Then, on April 18, I got an email for an on-campus interview scheduled for May 10, which I accepted. They covered all my expenses, and the campus is really nice and seems like a great place to live and work. It was good to see the staff again and put faces to the names. This position has a lot of potential, and I'd really love to get it.

The whole thing took about 3 months. I applied in May, and they first reached out in early June. It started with a phone interview that went well. Then, two weeks later, I had a Zoom interview with the same folks, plus one more person from the department. About three weeks after that, I had another Zoom interview. It all seemed to go fine, and they said they'd be checking my references. A week later, I followed up about the references, and another week after that, they said it was going well and I'd get an update soon. Then, another week passed, and I got a generic rejection email from the university. I asked HR for feedback, and they sent a weird email that misspelled my name and said they don't give feedback. They told me to keep checking their job postings. After 3 months, I was really hoping for some feedback to know why I was rejected.

Behavioral Presentation
The selection period was very, very long. I came to campus, got a tour and then headed to the interview location with my future boss. The interview consisted of a panel who asked about my background and professional personality, as well as a presentation on what I'd do with the department. It wasn't stressful or aggressive at all. Background check also took a long time as HR tends to be very busy. Start to finish the process took several months.
