I was asked to create a slideshow for a new event proposal in under a week. The slideshow had a whole page of requirements. The interview itself was fine, but they kept calling me afterwards for more questions.

Behavioral Technical

I applied online and interviewed with the department directors 3 days later. The interview went well and my former supervisor told me they contacted her for a reference and said that I was their top candidate. One week later I received a call from a human resources representative who said she just had a few questions. The call turned out to be a one hour grueling interrogation with her insisting that I list my shortcomings and weaknesses in former jobs. When I indicated a few minor ones she said ' oh everybody does that' and she kept insisting I list more weaknesses, or examples of where supervisors said I needed improvement on performance evals in the past 10 years. I told her that I could not even remember that far back, that nothing stood out. Any response I gave was not acceptable, and it seemed as though she was intentionally trying to eliminate me. I eventually provided some personal weaknesses just to end the interrogation.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Normal questions about my qualifications for the job were asked.
  • The follow up phone call from HR was only directed at demanding that I indicate weaknesses/shortcomings other than minor ones.

Behavioral Presentation

I applied and heard back about 3 months later. First, I had a phone interview with the committee. Each committee member asked one question they had prepared. Within a week, they invited me for an on-campus interview which included a 15-minute teaching demo. Although they said I'd hear back in a week, it actually took about 3 weeks.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Could you provide a specific instance where you demonstrated creativity in a professional setting?
