I interviewed my research advisor.
The hiring process for international postdocs was rather slow. And they only give 1-year VISA contracts to foreign postdocs, unless you have an outside fellowship.
Received very little help in terms of relocation. Housing is surprisingly expensive, and there are essentially no subsidized or on-campus housing options for postdocs.
Applied online. Got an email from a professor. Had a video interview first followed by an on site visit. Discussed research mostly, had a good experience. Met the other members of the research group and saw their lab
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Princeton University (Princeton, NJ) in Jan 2022
Interview
The process was well organized (from travel, lodging, scheduling, and entertainment). Very friendly students, faculty, and staff! The team was interested in getting to know my work as well as me personally. Great interview!
Thank you for your interest in working at Princeton University. We appreciate your participation in our hiring process and your taking the time to leave us a review.
I applied online. I interviewed at Princeton University in Feb 2021
Interview
The interview was conducted via Zoom with one faculty member. It was a semi informal atmosphere. Interview duration was about an hour. I was asked a couple of questions on my research and my CV, nothing groundbreaking. I enjoyed the interview process and the chance to get feedback from a senior academic.
