      Graduate Assistant Interview

      11 Feb 2018
      Anonymous employee
      Boston, MA
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at Boston University

      Interview

      Two interviewers were present. One asked most of the questions, and other than normal HR questions, he mentioned that "there are 250 applications and only 2 openings, so it's very competitive". I later heard people who were rejected a different interview also were informed of the number of applicants, so I don't know if it's a sign of a subtle rejection or a BU thing. Also, the other interviewer tested my foreign language skills. Good talk and promises but no follow-ups.

      Graduate Assistant Interview

      18 Nov 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Boston, MA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Boston University (Boston, MA) in May 2014

      Interview

      I applied online and was asked to answer a few questions about social media, graphic design, and engaging students. I attached my resume and a link to my graphic design work. Almost immediately, I was asked to interview. I was in New York at the time, so the Skype interview was about 20 minutes long and it felt very relaxed and casual, just like having conversation.
