      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Smithsonian in Nov 2022

      Interview

      Easier than I expected - around a 20-30 minute interview with very basic interview questions about strengths, weaknesses, why I wanted to intern there, knowledge about the NMAH, etc. Fairly straightforward interview :)
