The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UC San Diego (La Jolla, CA) in Apr 2019
Interview
It was a panel interview of four people, two of which were from different, but related departments. All were very pleasant, and they took turns asking questions from a script. I fully appreciate that there were likely other meetings scheduled following my interview, but I felt rushed toward the end, and it was plainly obvious that the position’s supervisor was done, even before I had a chance to ask my questions. Having taken the time to meet with them personally (and follow up with a thank you), I expected the minimum of a “No, thanks”. There was nothing.
It was a panel interview with 5 people - pre-COVID. There was a range of personnel, from within the department and without. They took turns asking questions (which seemed to be from a master list). Everyone was very pleasant and the atmosphere was the same. I did get the sense that the manager had already made the hiring decision and they were just going through the motions - and that’s okay. It was good practice.
