I applied through college or university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Arizona State University (Tempe, AZ) in Apr 2012
Interview
It was a two-step process. First was a phone interview with head of the department and some key faculties. Second interview was at the university and it was a day long which included 1.5 hour of presentation. I talked about my background and prior research work as well as my goals and vision about future research.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what is your plan for research for next five years at university? (the tenure period is five years and therefore you need to have a clear vision of on what areas you want to focus your research on.
They send me an email to answer four questions. I replied by the given deadline. But they haven't contacted me since then. I wish they contacted me. Hopefully, I will have another opportunity in another institution so that I prepare well and perform well.
Smooth. It did take time to hear after I applied. Good communication about setting up the interview and follow up. The initial interview was telephone and the second was virtual. I provided a presentation about a teaching topic that was selected by the committee.
I applied online. I interviewed at Arizona State University (Phoenix, AZ) in Feb 2020
Interview
one day interview. first one hour presentation, then one hour with search committee, and then with senior faculty members one by one. roughly 5 hours in total. long but doable.
