I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Mercy College (New York, NY) in Sep 2013
Interview
Email correspondance, meeting, large delay in being hired... as I had many other options to teach courses. There was no introduction to the chair of the department, I was being interviewed by a math professor. This seemed quite strange, and only later did I see that dozens were hired as adjuncts-- just for a semester or so. The posting for the job has remained on several sites since the hiring of all these professionals, and this is very strange and disrespectful.
