I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Oxford Brookes University (Oxford, England) in Aug 2009
Interview
Generally smooth and fair. 10 minute presentation followed by interview. Panel of 3, including HR person. Questions were relevant and straightforward. No silly questions. I think they may have asked if I had any weaknesses, but not sure - I have a terrible memory for things like this (one of my major weaknesses, I'm afraid). Got a phone call from HR a couple of days later offering the job. Standard contract came though post. Relocation expenses of £5k paid for.
I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oxford Brookes University (Headington, England) in Oct 2008
Interview
Extremely organised and detailed. I was sent letters giving me clear instructions with dates, times and places including travel and joining instructions. The interview involved giving a short ten minute lecture followed by a question and answer session. If you know your subject, then it is very easy. One person asked very strange and odd questions.
