I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Penn State (State College, PA) in Dec 2014
Interview
Meeting with professor who I contacted. Meeting was about 30 mins in length. Asked about previous technical and writing experiences. Some behavioral questions, mainly interested in learning your work ethic.
Zoom call with leader of project (undergraduate student). Discussion with PI to ask if there were any openings on his research team. Conversation on Zoom call was conversational and helped me learn more about the research rather than question my credentials.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Penn State (Reading, PA) in Aug 2019
Interview
There was no interview process. It was easy. No need to worry. Just ask for a job and they will give it to you. I am now only doing this for a word count.
