Ohio State University Systems Specialist Interview

Posted May 10, 2012

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Jul 2011 – Reviewed May 10, 2012

Interview Details – Initial communication was with my direct manager asking for an interview. I accepted the interview, and was interviewed by the entire team I would be working on. After this interview, I was called for a 2nd interview with two director level staff members above my direct manager. Following this interview, I was called by the director level staff member for a follow-up phone interview to clarify many of the same things gone over in the interview with this same staff member earlier the same week. After this, I was offered the job and accepted. I went through a background check and drug test and was hired within 12 days.

Interview Question – What is the most memorable experience you have from your childhood and how did it change your life for the worse or the better going forward?   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – Negotiation is almost pointless within the state institutions unless you are going for a teaching/tenured position or have quite a bit of room in the position title for growth.

Other Details - I applied online and the process took 5 days.
