Several rounds of interview first with manager, then with researchers. Process was very long but typical. Also took a test before the interview. Researchers were really nice asked about previous and current research experiences.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at RAND
Interview
Applied online. Took about 2 months to hear back. Contacted for an interview and to schedule 4-6 hours on one day. Interview pushed back by RAND two weeks. Heard interview schedule the night before. 1.5 hours of info sessions, 3 interviews. Two with more senior researchers (30 min each) and one with current RA (45 min). 15min-1 hour breaks in between interviews. Everyone was very nice and friendly. Seemed more like a vibe check.
