Group Presentation Behavioral

I applied online and then got an invitation for a Skype interview. The interview lasted about 30 minutes. It was a group setting, and everyone was really friendly. We mostly talked about teaching, research, and service aspects of the role. A key topic was how we could bring more students into the program.

Behavioral Presentation

It was a pretty quick interview process for a role in higher ed, lasting about two hours. The job was focused on advising student-athletes. I met with three groups: the advising center staff/assistant coaches, the athletic director, and the dean of academic support. Everyone was really nice and asked good questions that related to what they were looking for.

First met with HR, who were super nice. Then I had a meeting with the Department Supervisor. This meeting was very formal and not comfortable. Apparently, most supervisors are also teachers, so they're always evaluating everything you say. It felt like I wasn't being treated as an equal. There was some back-and-forth communication between HR and the department. Parking for candidates was confusing and hard to find. Overall, it was a pretty formal process, and they gave us folders of info to take.

I had three interviews, and then Universitry called me to make an offer, saying I'd get the contract by Monday. But on Monday, they emailed to say I wasn't selected. I understand things change, but honesty is key in our industry. It would've been better if they'd just admitted they made a mistake and explained why they weren't proceeding.
