First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Mt. San Antonio College.
Student Assistant
I got an email to set up an interview that would be in person on campus, and they gave me some times that would work. They also told me what topics they might ask about and some questions about the job itself.
- Tell us about yourself.
- Could you lead a short, 5-10 minute mock session, acting as the SI/ET while we play the role of students?
Community Health Educator
It was a good interview on both sides. I talked with the department director. We talked about my past experience and they told me what they expect and what the job entails. They also showed me around and introduced me to the staff.
- Can you tell me about yourself?
- How would you approach the responsibilities of this role?
- What motivates you to pursue a career in this field?
Faculty Position
The interview process consisted of three distinct stages over several days. Stage 1 involved writing a 30-minute essay on a relevant topic, followed by 30 minutes of note-taking before a 50-minute Q&A session with the committee, and finally 10 minutes for my questions. Stage 2 was a 25-minute teaching demonstration on a pre-assigned topic to a large class of students. Stage 3 was a Skype meeting with two committee members and an administrator, lasting 30-45 minutes. Advancement to the next stage was required.
- Considering your education and experience, what makes you a good fit for this role?
- In what ways do you keep up-to-date with your field?
- What are some key themes you focus on in the courses you teach?
Office Assistant
After applying online, I received a response after three weeks. The interview was at an office, where an interviewer asked questions for about 30 minutes. There were a lot of other people at this interview.
- Could you share a weakness of yours?
- Can you tell me a bit about yourself?
- What makes you believe you'd be a good fit for this role?
