Interviewing

Your HR Business Partner will contact you when you are approved to begin the interview process. It is recommended that you review the Interview Guidelines as it contains detailed information about each step of the interviewing process.

Interview Panel

In preparation for the interview, you will need to select a diverse interview panel that represents our workforce. Please refer to the UC ANR Search Committee Composition guidelines document that will be provided by your HR Business Partner. 

Interview Questions

You must use the same interview questions for each applicant. Contact your HR Business Partner if you would like us to send you examples of position specific interview questions.

For a more generic list of interview questions, please take a look at our Sample of Interview Questions guide. 

Work Sample Option

Work samples are used as an additional tool, along with the information presented in the candidate's application and the interview process, to make a final selection. This may not be a skills test. 

If you are going to request a work sample, please make sure to discuss it with your HR Business Partner prior to the interview. The HR Business Partner will need to know the purpose of asking for a work sample and what are the expected results. Before requesting to use a Work Sample, please review the Work Sample Instructions.
