Fellow
It was a long interview process with a written part, a group interview, and a panel interview. They gave us an agenda for the interview activities. The process was transparent.
- How would you approach solving a hypothetical problem that might arise in this role?

Got an email with dates and times to pick from, chose one that worked. Then it was a panel interview with 5 people, they each asked me a question and some follow ups based on my answers.
- Can you introduce yourself?
- Could you talk about any programs you've worked on or implemented?
- Describe a challenging work experience you've had.
Intern
I got an email about the interview pretty quickly. The interview was 30 minutes long and the interviewer was really nice and friendly the whole time. They asked me to send in a writing sample, like a statement of interest, to check my writing skills for the job.
- Could you provide a statement of interest demonstrating your writing abilities?
- How does your educational background align with the requirements of this role?
