You get interviewed by other RA, easy interview, you have to pronounce some words in Spanish. If you can do it, then you get in. It’s a very easy interview that takes about 10 minutes.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Project SEED (Austin, TX) in Aug 2013
Interview
Really brief and simple, I applied to the Spanish Research Assistant position so if you can read Spanish clearly then you are guaranteed a spot. Show up well-dressed and be polite. Also, if you qualify for work-study then that puts you at an advantage. Try your best to make a good impression on the person interviewing you since they will more than likely be making the decision as to whether you should be part of the program or not.
