Interview Process

Carousel Interviews

Carousel Interviews will take place on January 28 & 29, 2012 (meet in Science Theatres 131), in either the morning or the afternoon. New CA applicants will sign up to attend one of the four time slots offered over that weekend. Carousel will give us a chance to observe CA applicants rotating through different situations in a station-by-station fashion.  No preparation is required on your part for Carousel, apart from personal reflection on your reasons for applying for the Community Advisor position.

All Community Advisor candidates will be informed of their Carousel interview date and time slot via email by Wednesday, January 25, 2012 at 4:30pm.

Individual Interviews

Individual interviews; between you, a Senior member of the Residence Education Team, and a professional staff member; will take place during Carousel. If the Residence Life Coordinators feel like they would like to meet with you again after the group interview process, you may be called for a second interview in February 2012.
