Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Temple University.
Instructor
It's an in-person teaching demo, and they'll ask some questions about the subjects you'll teach. If you're ready, it won't be too hard. Just one round for this part-time instructor job.
- Show us how you'd teach financial literacy.
Tutor
I applied online and then I got an interview. The interviewer asked me about my experience and my tutoring approach. It was pretty standard, nothing too difficult. They also had me demonstrate how to solve a math problem.
- Tell me about your previous experience.
- How would you handle a student who is struggling to grasp a concept?
- Can you walk me through solving this math problem?
Instructor
Although I was qualified for the instructor position, HR did not pass my resume to the department, and I heard nothing back. About six months later, I noticed the job was still posted. I then emailed the program director and was invited to interview. The director had to contact HR and insist that they send my resume. I was 'hired' before they finally did. The director said this was a common issue.
- The interview process was conversational, collegial, and enjoyable, with no trick questions.
