First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine.
Student Assistant
I got a phone call, and then they set up an in-person interview where I got to see the place. It was super chill. They offered me the job right then and there.
- Tell me about any prior experience you have with animals.
Animal Health Tech
After a while after submitting my application, I got a call to come in for an interview. I sat in a room with a panel of people who asked me questions while they took notes. The interview felt personal and warm, but very scripted.
- Tell me a story that relates to this job.
Veterinary Technician
The interview involved detailed, job-specific questions about patient care. The questions weren't overly difficult but required a good grasp of the fundamentals. I was interviewed by two people, and the process felt professional and thorough.
- Can you state normal vital signs?
- What equipment do you use for patient monitoring?
- Could you describe your relevant skills?
Junior Specialist
The professor interviewed me personally for her lab. She seemed concerned about budget limitations and training time, and emphasized that the human cell cultures used in her lab are irreplaceable if ruined. Because I lacked extensive mammalian cell culturing experience, which was a requirement not mentioned in the online job description, she considered me underqualified.
- Can you describe your experience with PCR and how much help you'd need to do it?
- Tell me about your experience with handling and growing mammalian cell cultures.
- How would you go about researching a specific topic, like what techniques or data to use?
