First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at UC San Francisco.
Financial Analyst
So the first step, we'll hop on a quick phone call, either with me or the hiring manager. It's just to see if you're a good fit, basically checking out your skills and if you're interested. They might ask about your background, past jobs, and why you want this role. If that goes well, you'll then move on to a panel interview with some of the senior folks on the team.
- What's a project or achievement you're really proud of?
- How do you deal with tough situations at work?
- Have you ever disagreed with a coworker or manager? How did you sort it out?
Finance Analyst
I was interviewed by people who don't even know what they are talking about. Be careful what they tell you in the interview about your job duties because that always turns out to be different once you're hired. The managers totally take advantage of the competent people and dump all the work on them while the person who is sitting next to you has nothing to do because she is incompetent yet she makes more than you.
No confirmed questions were included in this interview report.
Financial Analyst
The whole thing started with a phone chat, then I had two in-person panel interviews. All in all, it took about 1.5 months from the initial contact to get the offer. They weren't really open to negotiation, it was basically take it or leave it, and my attempts to get more weren't successful. It was a bit stressful, as interviews tend to be, but when I look back, it actually went pretty smoothly and the company handled it well.
