I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at UCLA (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
This was for an entry-level position so only job requirements and schedule was discussed. My responsibilities were explained in general terms. I was introduced to everyone in the office and talked a little bit about myself and my background. Because I was referred by a previous employee, the process was very quick and not difficult at all. I was asked to do HR paperwork at the day of the interview.
Fair interview process with standard questions such as, “Why do you want to work here?” and “Describe your strengths and weaknesses.” I went through two interviews — one with my direct manager and one with her boss.
