It was a good experience, they were clear about what they expected and were nice. They showed me around the office. There were two interviews in total, I think one was with the hiring manager and the other with the department manager.

You start with a 15-30 minute phone screening from The Director of Institutional Planning. You'll learn about the job duties and the company, and they'll ask you to talk about yourself. After that, there's an in-person interview for about 45 minutes with 4 people. It was pretty relaxed, and you'll get typical interview questions, though some seemed unrelated to the job, like asking about my favorite boss.
