I applied in-person. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Solent University (Southampton, England) in Oct 2023
Interview
Face-to-face interview for a lecturer position in psychology department. Included two stages, same day. One is small teaching practice (30 min) and panel interview (40 min) with three academics. Enough instruction provided before the interview. During this period, I noticed the addition of a new member on the university's website, which led to some confusion about my application's status.
However, it's been 50 days since the interview, and I have not received any communication regarding the status of my application.
