Research Assistant
First, you'll email the Principal Investigator about the opening. If they're interested, they'll invite you for an interview. There might be a second interview, after which they'll let you know the outcome via email.
- Tell me about your research background.
- What are your areas of expertise?
- What makes you want this job?
Research Assistant
You'll chat with the professor about your research interests. If your personality and grades are good, it really comes down to whether the professor has the funding to support you. Having a current PhD student or postdoc in the lab can also be a plus.
- What was your undergraduate GPA?
Research Assistant
We started with an introduction, then asked about your qualifications and what you expect from the role. We also left time for any questions you might have. The vibe was friendly and professional, but the online interview was held in a big room, making it a bit hard to follow sometimes. I often had to ask things twice to make sure I understood.
- Could you please tell me about your Master's Dissertation?
- Would it be possible for you to show the do file for your dissertation?
