Have my first campus interview, I know to come prepared with questions to ask each person, but wondering if you have interviewed at a campus interview lately, what questions did people ask you during one-on-one meetings? Any questions you were a little surprised by but felt you should have prepared for? Yes I have read every post from the professor is in lol.

I think with individual faculty meetings, it won't be too bad. If you have questions, they'll probably be talking more than you do. Last year, I was asked how I teach certain classes (from the search chair), why I'm interesting in working at this institution in particular (from the Dean), etc. Don't stress too much. You'll be fine.

Who will you choose to have lunch with, Durkheim, Weber, and Simmel? I was asked this question and I chose Simmel. One of the committee member said I fucked up as Simmel sucks

The hardest question for me was from someone who wanted to ask a lot of detailed questions about another project on my CV (not my diss). I'd been so focused on prepping my job talk that I could barely remember this other project. It was embarrassing.

What questions should you expect from the dean, chancellor, and/or other administrators?
On the flip side, what questions would be good to ask them?

Some questions you may get: -Tell me why you became a sociologist. -What are some strategies that you use to create an inclusive learning environment for your students? -What are the most important debates in your research area? -Tell me about your future research plans. -Which grants are you planning to apply for?
Some questions you can ask: -What kind of programs do you have to support new faculty? -What is the long-term plan for this institution? -How does this department fit into the long-term plan?
