I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at University of Washington (Seattle, WA) in July 2015
Interview
Friendly environment throughout the entirety of the process. Employers are seeking energetic individuals. Two on one type interview. I was taken to commons area and asked about myself so mostly behavioral questions were asked. Took place at UW tower in the advancement department. Finance & Administration.
The interview was short, it was only around half an hour long. The interviewers were very personable and excellent listeners. There was time to ask a few questions at the end.
One interview with current employees lasting about 30 minutes. The employees explained the company culture and main tasks and projects of the job with a general Q&A session at the end.
