Northern Kentucky University Interview Questions
& Process

It was a behavioral interview that went smoothly. They asked about my studies and if I had any prior research experience. Then, they inquired about my personal information and concluded by asking about my strengths and weaknesses.

They had six interviews. One was a committee interview with six people. Then there was an interview with the Director. After that, an interview with the Assist. Dean of the division. Next, two separate interviews with Program Directors. Then, an interview with the Director of Career Services and Diversity & Inclusion. Finally, an interview with the Associate Dean over student services.

I had an interview with the program faculty about my research and teaching. Then, there was a bigger interview with about 25 department faculty. I had to do a teaching demonstration, teaching a class on a topic chosen by the instructor and answering questions from students and faculty. I also gave a research presentation to the program faculty, where I had to defend my work. After that, I interviewed with the dean. We also took an informal tour of the campus.

I had one 20 min phone call interview where they asked tech support questions. They were mainly looking for keywords and experience stories. About two weeks later, I went in for an in-person interview and met with a group of 4 interviewers. There were some slightly high-level technical questions and also some personality/behavioral questions. I got an offer about 5 weeks later. The offer process was a bit slow, but that's just how they operate.
