Everybody will interview you. I think they focus more on communication and customer service skill. This organization is a state entity so they are limited to what the state has regulated. Some hiring managers will give you an opportunity to learn as long as you can prove that you are capable of doing it.

It was a very relaxed and comfortable environment. The interview was somewhat casual and it definitely helped make me comfortable throughout the conversation. Employer(s) were very nice and helpful. It would be difficult to NOT get hired if selected for an interview in that small position.

Interviewed Aug 2010 in Houston, TX (took 5 days)
It's isn't really a complicated interview. Tough for my position, I was interviewed by three different people. Generally the case is, you are interviewed by the person( admin or professor) who is hiring. The interviewer asked me about my previous work experience. Did I face any challenges, what are the tools and software I was proficient in.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in Houston, TX (took 4+ weeks)
You get interviewed by three different groups that are split by the teams within the office. It was important to have a collective decision and to see if you fit on each team well. You were also interviewed by your direct supervisor. The panel interviews were hardest.

Negotiation Details
I did not have much negotiation. University settings usually have a hiring standard that you are not able to wiggle very much.
