First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at St. Mary's College of California.
Director of Advancement
This interview process had 4 people from the college interviewing me. They each asked me 3 questions about my past work experience and how it relates to the role I'm interviewing for. Each person also shared what their role is at the college and how they interact with others every day.
- Can you share your past work experience and explain how it will benefit you in this role?
- Could you provide an example of a challenge you faced and how you successfully overcame it, detailing the outcome?
Student Representative
The interview felt like a casual chat, not too bad because I prepared beforehand. I was definitely more nervous than I needed to be. Overall, it was a pretty good first interview!
- Can you share a challenging experience you faced and how you dealt with it?
- Tell me about a lesson you learned and how it impacts your daily life.
Student Assistant
I had to fill out and submit an application in person. After dropping off my application, resume, and a letter of recommendation, I got an email a few days later about the interview schedule. They were chill about scheduling, and I could come in whenever worked for me. It was a group interview with two supervisors, and they asked me some basic stuff. They mentioned they were hiring for spring. I got the offer in January and started training.
- What book do you like or what are you reading now?
Student Ambassador
It was a super straightforward process. There were two main parts: first, chatting with current student ambassadors, and second, talking with some of the faculty. They asked pretty basic questions just to get to know you. Honestly, if you just let your good personality shine through, you'll totally nail it.
- Can you share an instance where you encountered a challenge?
