Director Interview
Anonymous Interview Candidate
Application
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Otis College of Art and Design
Interview
Four interviews over three months and inappropriate due to being made a verbal offer as well as given reassurance by those above the person I would be reporting to. It was his final decision to pass. No hard feelings as everyone should feel it is a great fit. Most of the staff was friendly except for one fishing comment regarding my age. I would describe the work environment itself as cold, dark and dreary. Very small campus, but everyone seemed in good spirits- team atmosphere.
Interview Questions
- Asked for proposals, ideas and contacts of mine. It will be interesting to note if they use them.

Fashion Department Interview
Anonymous Interview Candidate
Application
I applied through an employee referral I interviewed at Otis College of Art and Design
Interview
I was approached by someone associated with the school. After communicating by email, filling out the application and providing quite a bit of specialized documentation, a phone interview was scheduled. This phone interview was rescheduled, then the rescheduled time was just blown off, and then they called me without warning while I was at work. This call was about a month after they first received my resume. Over the course of this interview it became clear that what they wanted was exactly the opposite of my experience, and the interviewer told me that they had another applicant they preferred and spoke of that person's work experience admiringly. I'm not sure why they wasted my time but I didn't appreciate it.

Academic Records Specialist Interview
Anonymous Interview Candidate in Los Angeles, CA
Application
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Otis College of Art and Design (Los Angeles, CA) in Aug 2016
Interview
I applied online and a couple of days later, HR called me to speak briefly about the position and we set-up an interview for me to come in to meet with the Registrar. The Registrar lady seemed to be laughing during the interview and at that moment I wanted to walk out, but I kept my cool. Why are you interested in the Academic Records Specialist position and how this position fits into your future professional goals? Asked how I liked working in my previous job. Asked about the skills in my last position and how I felt that they would transition into the role of an Academic Records Specialist. Was I responsible for data entry, student files, and scanning in my last position? What was the most challenging and complex project you handled at work? What part of the project required you to go above and beyond your usual resources? What is diversity to you and how would you incorporate that to create that environment that is inclusive to our school? In your last job, what was the population of the student body like? What advice would you give someone working in a Customer Service role for the first time? What's your ideal learning environment at work? In terms of supervision, do you like to work independently or do you like someone to check in a lot? What's the best compliment you've received for your work style? And a criticism you have received for your work style? What qualities do you value most in co-workers and what qualities do you find challenging? Have you had a work experience where you've found a co-worker somewhat challenging and if you did, how'd you overcome that? How do you handle multiple task and projects? Do you have any tools that you use to keep yourself on track? Could you describe an issue you've had to handle at work and how did you react to that? How comfortable are you with technology?
