Question 1
why are you the ideal candidate for this position?
Recruiting process started with a resume screening by the recruiter, followed by an HR interview to discuss background and motivation. The next stage was a hiring manager interview focusing on research experience and project fit. The final stage was a full-day onsite interview that included a one-hour research seminar, technical discussions with team members, and several behavioral interviews with cross-functional stakeholders.
One round of talking to multiple people that I would be working with, mostly behavioral instead of technical. Scheduled soon after I submitted my application. Met via teams video and was very understanding when I had some technical difficulty.
4 on 1 all behaviorals for intern role. pretty standard questions, tell me a time you struggled tell me about yourself. got back to me pretty fast. the team itself and the work we did was quite mundane, good for chill entry level job but you will be very bored.
