    Re: Development Assistant position at a university Interview

    Glad to help.

    What does the position's job description expect you to do? If you do not have such a key document, you must get it well in advance of the interview.

    If the position is for grant proposal writing, far more likely you will be asked for writing samples.

    If not for such a position, chances are next to none you will be tested to write a solicitation letter.

    Again, the position description will as well let you know just how much, if at all, you will be required to personally manage a database.

    Managing a data base, or providing data to one who primarily does so on the staff, will make a big difference in what your job will in fact entail.

    You (we) need to know what this prestigious university expects from you before you go into the interview.

    Tony
