First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at University of Louisiana at Monroe.
Librarian
I applied in November 2022, interviewed about a month later, and got an offer a few weeks post-interview. The interview was remote via Zoom with 4 hiring committee members. We all did introductions, then they asked questions from a pre-selected list. The committee seemed to work well together and had a cooperative vibe. They asked good questions and listened well, and answered my questions professionally, making the school feel welcoming.
- What were your responsibilities in past/current roles?
- What led you to pursue this field?
- Describe a situation where you resolved a work problem without supervisor presence.
Alumni Association
So I went through 4 interviews in total (one phone call, two via Zoom, and one in person). Everything was going great up until the final interview. After the last one, it wasn't clear if there would be more interviews, they said they'd let me know about next steps. They did get back to me, but mentioned they were up against unexpected deadlines and would get back by a specific date. Fast forward a whole month past that date, and I reached out since I hadn't heard anything. Honestly, usually, I'd follow up sooner, but everything I'd read suggested just waiting it out. Then, another full month after my email, they called to say they had hired someone else. Until the very end, the process was fantastic, but the silence after the last interview was a major red flag. I totally get that hiring can take longer than expected, but the lack of communication was rough.
- How long are you willing to commit to this role if you are hired?
Assistant Professor
The interview process generally went well, but the on-campus interview had some issues. Some interviewers shared personal details that made me uncomfortable, like one discussing their parent's recent passing at length, which I found inappropriate for a professional setting. A significant problem was the initial lack of reimbursement for lodging, which took six weeks and multiple calls to resolve.
- Could you describe how you would structure a course syllabus?
Admission Officer
The interview experience was great and the people were friendly. From the moment I arrived, the positive energy of the office made me want to work there. It was a very professional interview, but I also felt very comfortable. The staff here really take pride in the university. Just a heads-up, be respectful and avoid wearing purple and gold (LSU colors) or your former university's colors.
- How would you feel about recruiting students to this university if you are an alumnus of a different institution?
