Expect questions on confidentiality with presidential-level matters, stakeholder triage across a multi-campus public system, and examples of protecting sensitive information while keeping executives prepared. Prepare concise stories on calendar conflicts, urgent briefings, and professional judgment when priorities collide.
Strong fit if you thrive in executive support inside a large public university, value discretion, and can operate calmly amid complex institutional stakeholders. Less ideal if you need remote work or a narrow single-campus rhythm.
