Claflin University interview questions

Very unprofessional. Was asked personal questions about if I had or planned to have kids. Poor communication and felt very disorganized. The person in charge of the day was quite abrupt and unfocused. It felt from the beginning of the day onward they were disinterested in the process.

I interviewed on campus with a faculty committee and met with the Dean and Provost separately. They left me hanging for two months, despite my follow ups. After I started the position, I learned very quickly that I had been deceived during the interview/hiring process. I was lied to about the contributions I would be allowed to make at this school. I told them exactly who I was and about the high standards I had always taken into my classes, but they hired me anyway. Nobody was honest with me about the environment of very low behavioral and academic standards that I was really coming into. Nobody told me that administrators would expect me to inflate grades (to help retention, which in turn, makes more money for the school) and expect me to tolerate disrespectful, rude, and boisterous behavior from students. A student's tuition money was more important than a faculty member's well being, even in situations that involved students making physical threats and stalking.
