Question 1
Can you describe a time that you had competing priorities? How did you handle it? How did things turn out?
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at American University in May 2023
Interview
Round one- Self interview. Answered 10 questions via audio recording. Fairly straight forward questions. Round two- 3 hour interview with multiple departments. Same questions repeated for each session/department. Wondered if we could not just record the interview and then have other stakeholders review the info later. Very tedious.

Question 1
Q: How would you handle policies that you don't agree with?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at American University in Oct 2012
Interview
The interview process moves very quickly.
After submitting my resume and cover letter I was invited by email to come in the next afternoon.
The office culture is intimate, and I chatted with several work-study associates while I waited. One of my interviewers was very late, due to another University function. At all times, everyone put me at ease, to get a glimpse of my real personality and not just what was in my coverletter.
There was a good balance of leading questions, and the interviewers sharing how the program works. I felt good about the interview because I got the whole room laughing.

Question 1
You should expect foreign language skills to be tested on the spot! DC is very international, and the diverse staff at AU reflects this.
