Depends on your department. I was quite honest in my interview regarding my skills and felt that I did not conduct a good interview. However, I was offered a job so my feelings did not reflect the perceptions of the interviewers. Make sure you keep a copy of the job description you apply for since the online application process does not keep a copy for you.
People of department were quite friendly and willing to give me a chance even when I had not worked for a while. Professionals that are conscientious and willing to work with you.

Organized and thorough. Was invited for an in-person interview during the pandemic (preferred). CDC guidelines (of the time) were followed. Each panelist came with questions and took turns to ask.

They first put me through an Excel and Grammar test. Then a survey of programs and skills I may-- and asked me to rate my level of experience from 1-4 in a list of UCD programs (ie; MyTravel, Teamsite, etc..). There were a few behavioral questions, but nothing particularly hard.

Question 1
How would you manage a colleague who is being difficult or 'overly emotional' at the workplace?
I applied online. I interviewed at UC Davis Health (Sacramento, CA) in Jan 2015
Interview
There is a team of three interviewers. Questions seemed straight forward, but were misleading. Seems that you have to get inside information to pass the interview. I answered honestly and with as much eloquence as possible. Did not get the position although I have worked in same position with another company for over ten years. Maybe too honest? No reasoning or explanation as to why I was not chosen. For the effort expended by all - you'd think they'd let you know why...
