Cornell University Interview Questions

I was not interviewed. I got this job based on personal connections, during the pandemic. I simply called my former boss and asked them if they were able to hire me.

The interviewer was courteous throughout the whole process and had thoughtful questions prepared for the interview. It was a pleasant conversation, and although I didn't get the position, it was a positive experience overall. I had a lot of respect for the department ever since.

The first round interview was by phone with the search committee. The second round interview entailed a campus visit, arriving in time for candidate dinner on the first day, then leaving at the end of the second day after a full day interview.

They forgot to send me a schedule and didn’t have anyone to pick me up at the airport when I arrived. It was a fine interview but they had to completely rewrite the day because I wasn’t able to do a presentation since I had no idea

The interview process took a very long time, multiple interviews and a very slow communication in between interviews. The interviewers were nice folks overall and given the challenging times I understand the delay but it was still hard to wait through the process.

Basically started with asking questions about myself, and why I was applying. Moved onto skills and specific work situations. They then asked if I had any questions. It was a fairly straightforward, regular interview.

it was a great experience. online interview with 5-10 questions, self-recording, 1-5 mins long per question. And I waited 2 weeks before getting the offer. make sure you express your interest clearly.

not too bad. interviewed by another student who didn't really know what he was doing so I kind of had to direct the interview which was okay. very casual but somehow they cut a lot of people

I sent the resume and cover letter to the recruiter. The recruiter was very dismissive and couldn't explain clearly the recruiting processes clearly. It seems that they already have a person in mind even before posting the JD.

It was simple and friendly. The interview was mainly about the statement of purpose and the resume. Make sure to sound genuine and not glib and arrogant. They really emphasize on the interpersonal skills and likeliness of an individual.
