First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at University of Texas at Arlington.
Office Assistant
The interview process was pretty straightforward. I think about 3-4 people interviewed me. It might seem a bit overwhelming, but they were all really nice. Most of the questions are about situations you might encounter. It's perfectly fine to take a moment to think or even say you don't know. Definitely practice using the STAR method beforehand.
- How would you prioritize tasks when faced with multiple demands, such as a resident's question, a supervisor's task list, and an incoming phone call? Please explain your reasoning.
Accountant
I applied through their online portal, uploading my resume and detailing my experience and education. They emailed me to set up a virtual interview. In the interview, they asked me about my experiences and how I handled them, went over the role and responsibilities, and told me when I could expect to hear back about their decision.
- Tell me about a time you had to handle a difficult individual and what steps you took.
- Describe situations you've encountered and how you managed them.
- Could you explain the duties involved in this position?
Content Creator
I had two group interviews via Teams. People were nice and the questions were straightforward. I felt like they saw me as a good candidate. They asked me to make a storyboard to show how I'd work with them if hired. I spent a lot of time on this and the second interview went well. The next day the hiring manager told me they were re-evaluating and wouldn't be hiring anyone. I'm giving this a Negative rating because they don't know what they want, and it was a waste of my time and energy. Putting in all that effort and then getting dismissed so quickly makes me think working there would be unpleasant, so I'm glad I didn't get the job. It's disappointing that my alma mater isn't great at hiring.
- Can you describe a past project where your creativity was essential to its success?
Multidisciplinary Librarian
The interview started with a phone call. Then, there was an all-day event. Half of the day was for them to show me why it's a great place to work, and the other half was for me to show them why I'm a good fit. I also got to meet with people who weren't part of the hiring team, so I could get a real sense of the job and the environment. They went over all the benefits, gave me a tour of the campus, and meals were included for lunch and dinner.
- Give a presentation about academic integrity as if speaking to undergraduate students, and then explain each slide and answer questions about the presentation and your work experience.
