First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Santa Clara University.
Intramural Supervisor
I applied online and then had my interview. The questions were about my supervisor and ref experience, and also included some scenarios and diversity questions. They want to see how you can manage a group and be able to maintain control over a game.
- Can you introduce yourself and explain your interest in the Intramural Supervisor role?
- Tell me about your experience as a supervisor and referee.
- What situations have you handled when managing a group?
Camp Counselor
It was a quick and non-technical interview. They asked about my experience at the university and how it could apply to summer work. Overall, it was an open experience and nothing to stress over. It was a solid process, I would apply again.
- Tell me about something you are most proud of.
Collections Volunteer
First, you'll need to fill out the volunteer application on the university operations cultural resources page. Then, provide three references so the lab managers can vet and contact them if needed. Finally, there's an in-person lab walkthrough, tour, and interview.
- Can you provide three professional references?
- Why are you interested in volunteering for the CRM archaeology program at SCU?
Lifeguard
It was an in-person interview. They asked common interview questions, then did some basic in-water tests to check if I could do all the saves and Red Cross practices. They were more focused on the in-water part, but also asked about balancing work and school since it was a student job with SCU.
- How do you manage your time?
- How do you balance your job and schoolwork?
