Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview is a basic meeting where you'll talk about your research background and how your skills fit the lab's needs. They might ask about your work style, like if you prefer defined tasks or if you can take a general project goal and run with it. Some technical questions might come up too. Make sure you've looked into the lab and know their research goals. Show this by asking good questions during the interview. The Principal Investigator (PI) will likely go over current projects, and you can ask about them or how you might contribute. Finish by asking about the timeline for hearing back and reminding them of your interest. Be confident, look professional, and smile!

Confirmed questions1 question
  • When it comes to managing a project, do you prefer having a detailed task list, or are you comfortable defining the specifics yourself after being given the main objective?
