It was mostly a good interview, the staff were nice and friendly. The biggest red flag was being told I'd hear about the offer in 2 weeks. After those two weeks, the search committee pushed the decision almost another week. After about a week I had to email them at the end of the day to ask if I had gotten the position. Search committee responded in less than 10 minutes to tell me I hadn't received the position, but I have a feeling that I would've been ghosted.

After sending in my CV, I was invited to interview with two departments that were considering me. I interviewed with the student activities and services department and the admissions department, and ultimately, I was selected to work in the admissions department. The interviews involved one-on-one meetings and then sessions with a small panel including one or more directors to help them make a collective decision. I knew others were interviewing too, but they made me feel very comfortable and explained the whole process clearly. I had the chance to ask questions and learn about the two roles I applied for, and they asked me which one I preferred.

Applied online and got a call for a phone interview. The phone interview felt rushed, and the interviewer didn't even properly introduce the job. I was surprised by the two-part, very specific behavioral questions for the first phone interview, especially considering the low salary offered. It's a good idea to ask about the salary upfront with this University before agreeing to an interview, as the pay is quite low for the expectations they have of candidates.

It was a phone interview first, and then an in-person one. The search committee asked me questions about how I work with a team, what I'd do if an emergency happened, and what strategies I'd use for the job. They didn't give any feedback, which was a bit intimidating. It was pretty straightforward. They asked about what programs I could come up with. Also asked why I was looking to switch jobs. They didn't really give a job overview beyond the ad right away.
