Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at San Jacinto College.
Administrative Assistant
It was a great experience! I had one interview, and if they choose you, you can accept or decline the position. It's a great place to work with a great team. The questions were great and the experience was professional.
- Can you share an example of a challenging situation you faced and how you handled it?
Administrative Assistant
I initially applied online for a bunch of admin jobs. This one was at the campus near my home. First there was a phone screening, then an in-person interview.
- Imagine a student was misdirected and waited an hour at the wrong department, how would you handle that miscommunication?
Administrative Assistant
It was a phone interview, then a face-to-face, and then a meeting with the Provost. After that, there was a background check and salary negotiation, followed by a formal job offer. They called back within a few days after each step. I think they only hire at the start and middle of the month.
- They asked a lot of scenario questions. For example, someone in the group interview would pretend to be an angry parent wanting to get information on their student's account and you have to reply as if you were actually in that situation.
