I was invited for an interview about 3 days after I applied. It was a 25 minute interview with a panel of 3 people. They asked me questions about my fit for the role and some situational questions. The interviewers were all really friendly and I didn't feel any pressure.

At a state school, you'll often find yourself in front of a committee where questions are read from a script. The bigger the committee, the more standard the questions. But with smaller committees, the questions can get really personal. I've been asked about my marital status, where I'm from, my spouse's nationality, if I'm married to a foreigner, the origin of my name, and other things that are actually illegal to ask. When I told UH HR about this, they just pointed me to the local HR for the department I applied to. Those HR people either never replied, were in on the illegal questions, or the small committee just denied asking them, and nothing happened. Just so you know, UH is a corrupt place to work, but this level of disregard for state laws is really shocking. Watch out.

Saw the job listing on the SECE website, then applied to the hiring person, who is the director of OLA. I sent in my resume, transcripts, and cover letter. I was then called in for a meeting where we talked about the details of tutoring. I was also given training, both in-person and online. After that, I had to do a fingerprint and background check. I was put on a waitlist until a schedule opened up. Then, I completed the rest of the training. After that, I was scheduled and cleared to start tutoring on my own. The whole process took about a couple of months.
