I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at UCLA in Dec 2019
Interview
Review is for the Anderson School of Management, Business Office
Applied - 12/11/19 (On UCLA career site)
Phone Interview - 12/19/19 Received email for phone interview on 12/18/19
The interviewer, Finance Manager, was real business like not too much general or friendly conversation, which I guess may be understandable. Most of the interview involved description of the position and different functions. I was given the opportunity to go into detail about my prior experience. While I am not a accountant by trade many of my skills as a budget analyst overlap. I was experienced but the interviewer was able to focus mostly on the piece that I was not familiar with unfortunately. I was told that they were going on winter break and in person interviews would be set up after the new year (after 01/03/19). I never received a call, which was expected. Checked the application status online mid January and the position was filled. I suck at phone interviews for the most part. Ha! Hope the timeline helps but it may have been accelerated due to the holidays and winter break.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions were based on skills and duties. No personality type questions were asked.
it was a fairly easy process. You were asked basic questions about your availability. You were asked about your interest in the position. You were asked about previous work experience as well.
Interview was straightforward. They gave a tour of the lab, explained the project role, how long they expected to fill the role, and asked me standard interview questions.
