Respond to an advert and you get shortlisted and then you are called for interview. Panel consists of the vice chancellor and head of departments. Initially you receive questions from the vice chancellor who chairs the panel and hands over to the Dean who asks generic questions. After that the chairperson of department then asks specific subject content questions. The vice chancellor will probe on issues to do with suitability or eligibility and whether the applicant meets the minimum requirements.

It was a fair process. The panel was friendly and asked practical questions relevant to the job in question. The environment was friendly. It calmed my nerves and gave me the confidence to respond to interview questions without stuttering.
