Candidate-reported interview process

The interview involved presenting a paper to the professors and then discussing its strengths and weaknesses. Following this, I was asked to propose improvements to the paper and explain my motivation for pursuing a PhD.

The interview lasted about 30 minutes. We talked about me, my skills, and what I've studied before. I also gave a presentation about my research project using slides. It wasn't a super tough interview. They invited me about two weeks after I applied.

I submitted an online application for a specific PhD project and then had an interview with the research group at Aarhus University. The interview occurred about three weeks after the application deadline, and I received an offer the very next day.
