Interviewed Apr 2012 (took 4 weeks)
Interviewed for faculty position, had many interviews with a variety of staff and faculty. Visiting the facilities and buildings, walked all around campus. People were nice and welcoming. Got little specific information about working conditions and problem at University. Research seem to be less important than the clinical activity. More of private practice setting hospital with a little research attached to it.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Chicago, IL (took 3 weeks)
I would like share one of my worst experience which happened in the hiring process at UOC.
I got three interview, one by the research assistants, then the head of dept and then the post doc in 3 weeks. I was offered the job of Programmer finally and they offered me salary that was very low compared to my expectation & market rate and so I asked them if they could increase it as I gave a average figure. To my surprise, the next I got email saying from hr that the funds which were to support the position are not enough right now as the the Prof didn't get enough funds than he expected.
I think this is very ridiculous reasoning and unprofessional on their side as I got he job offer letter. It was good that I didn't tell this to my current employer as I about to tell him. I felt nice that for god sake I am working with this bunch of craps.

As I said, its not bad to negotiate your salary. But in this particular case, they were unprofessional to judge me as they thought I wouldn't be committed as demand little bit more salary.

Saw the opening in the university job portal and sent my resume. They shortlisted mine and asked me to come to their office. There were 3 interviewers and the questions were a mix of behavioral and technical.
