Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Southern New Hampshire University.
Curriculum Developer
The interview kicked off with a virtual round on the Harver platform, featuring five basic questions. This was followed by a Zoom meeting with the hiring manager and some other leaders. Next, there was a task to complete. Finally, I had to present the task to a panel composed of the team I would be working with. I invested a lot in it but only received feedback that they were proceeding with other candidates. It’s standard practice to offer constructive feedback when a candidate reaches this stage, given the time and effort they put in, especially since they'll be moving on to other opportunities and may want to refine their professional profile.
- How would your former colleagues characterize you? And how about your former supervisors?
- Describe an instance where a plan did not go as expected and outline the actions you took in response.
Instructional Designer
The first interview was a timed video call, which was a bit stressful. After a few questions, the last one was about agreeing to the salary. It didn't feel very welcoming. Then, there was a face-to-face interview where the interviewer was really nice and friendly. I would have liked to work with her, but they were looking for someone to build test generators rather than design instructional materials, so I think it was a mismatch. Still, they were very kind and friendly.
- How did you find out about our company?
- Please confirm your agreement with the proposed salary.

The interview experience was really bad. The recruiter sounded like a pushy salesperson, and when I asked about the job, the team, or the projects, they gave vague answers. It felt like they were just going through a checklist and were in a hurry. Honestly, the best interviews feel more like a conversation, but this recruiter didn't seem very engaged.
