LIScareer.com -- Deconstructing the Interview Process at a Small Academic Library:
by Kathryn Johns-Masten

So you?ve jumped every hurdle and triumphantly landed your first job interview at a small academic library. As I recently went through this process, I?ll share some of my experiences and give you advice that may help prepare you. After passing all of the ?tests? and getting called for the interview, I was not sure what to expect from the interview itself. Knowing what to expect will reduce your stress and increase the likelihood of a great interview. Looking back on my interview schedule, the main themes were eating, interviewing and presenting. I will elaborate on these three themes, giving you some inside information on the presentation, the day-long interview, and, in my case, multiple meals.
