Behavioral Case

The interview process was pretty simple. First, I met with a talent acquisition specialist to talk about my past experience and why I wanted the job. If they liked me, the next step was an interview with a group of people and then the higher-ups. The recruiter told me there was a delay in deciding, which was nice, but then they totally ghosted me and never told me the decision. Kind of surprising from UTSA's talent acquisition team, tbh.

Behavioral Technical

I applied near the job posting's closing date. After applying on the 21st, I got a call on the 26th. The interview was on the 1st, and I heard back via email on the 16th that I wasn't selected. From the initial phone call, I suspected they already had someone in mind because the hiring manager mentioned they were 'just finishing up our final rounds of interviews.' The main interview had three interviewers. It started late, unusually beginning with 'Do you have any questions for us?' instead of the usual end. They then proceeded with a set of standardized questions, explaining that everyone received the same ones. The interviewers seemed disengaged, rarely making eye contact and mostly looking at their papers. Near the end, the person who would supervise the role took a cell phone call and briefly discussed it with another interviewer while I was answering the final question, 'Tell us why we should pick you over all of the other candidates.' Given this, I wasn't surprised by the outcome, though I was disappointed. Reflecting on it now, I think it might be for the best.
