After applying in 2020, I got a call in 2022. The process started with a screening call, then a Zoom call with a panel. I heard back within two weeks with an offer, and was hired within a month of interviewing.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process had two stages, and both were pretty relaxed. First, I met with the director and a current coordinator. Then, I met with the vice president and the director. In both meetings, they mainly asked about my past experiences and gave me a tour of the campus. I got feedback within a few days after each interview. I was offered the job eventually, but I turned it down. They mentioned that their HR department uses an algorithm to set salaries based on experience. Regardless of whether that's true, the offered salary is pretty much firm with no room for negotiation.

Behavioral Group Presentation

The process started with a phone screen, followed by in-person interviews with various people, including a group session. Then there was a test and an email follow-up that included a background and reference check. They were very thorough in getting to know the leaders in each department. The atmosphere was friendly, and the interview felt reciprocal and respectful. The interviewers were also happy to answer my questions. It was a professional experience overall. They gave me a school handbook at the start with info on benefits and history. The HR Director was on top of things and answered my questions kindly and efficiently. I was impressed with how the interview was conducted; even though it was long, it showed they really care about who they hire and their selection methods.

So first I met with a bunch of people and the HR head. They basically herded us around the building like we were cattle and took down our info. It felt super weird and structured for an initial interview, honestly. Then I had a phone interview. After that, I met with the Dean and some directors and gave a teaching demo. Then they had me stick around for 3 hours to watch classes and hang out with the other faculty. Finally, they called me two weeks later and offered me the job.
