Case Western Reserve University Interview Questions

Way too hard of an interview for the job offered (and pay). Video call with five different people. A ton of situational questions. You'd think I was interviewing for a 100k CIO job. My goodness. And if you get hired there you have to pay $90/month for parking, which is a load of crap. It all worked out as I ended up getting a better contract.

It was a hectic, unorganized process. I was told a salary in the first interview that was within my expectations/comfortability. I eventually receive a verbal offer (mind you this is 2-2.5 months into the process). It takes 4.5 weeks for me to receive my written offer from HR, after the verbal one. After I receive the written offer, I see that it is $12,000 less than what I was told in the first interview...4 months prior (and they couldn't go any higher). This is why they just need to post the salary on the job postings. I missed out on the hiring season for higher ed because I was given incorrect/extremely delayed information. Apply at your own risk.

The process was appropriate and sufficiently in-depth. I have worked at this institution in the past and there were no surprises. The interviewer was pleasant and easy to talk to.

The process was drawn out, and the in-person interview itself was 4 hours. It was essentially meeting with different people who asked the same general questions over again. You’re expected to create a presentation, which takes at least another hour if not more outside of the interview. There was a first round interview that was about 30 minutes via Zoom as well. I never heard back following the interview despite following up, which I assume is a rejection as the job was reposted recently. It would be considerate to follow up with candidates considering how much time they require for their interviews. The people who work in admissions seemed nice, but the expectation of 5+ hours of a work for an interview and lack of communication is ultimately why the experience is rated negative.

the interview was clunky and the questions weren't relevant to the position. they clearly weren't focused on the time or the interview and had multiple long questions making it extremely hard to focus on the process

After I initially applied, a recruiter screened me almost immediately. Then, I received an email from the hiring manager about a formal interview (the transparency about salary up front was much appreciated). I had two phone interviews, panel interview, and final interview with the hiring manager. The entire process took about a month and a half and was overall a pleasant experience.

It took a number of interviews to get the job. After being on the other side of the table, the process leaves so many applicants hanging for far longer than they should. It may cause good talent to look elsewhere after too long of a wait.

Applied through LinkedIn and was contacted by PI to schedule a Zoom interview for 30 mins. The interview lasted for 1 hour. I got asked basic questions from the area of technical research of the PI's lab and some programming questions.

Hard and long With corp structure. Hierarchical. Equality. University degree needed. Not friendly. Cold. Friendly admin staff. Team work. After interview went around to see the department and other staff

The interview process was great considering we had to do the initial interview through Zoom. But I felt that it went well and the people conducting the interview did a great job. I was able to meet in person for the second interview and it went better in person and the staff was really welcoming.
