Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at CONICET.
Intern
The interview was straightforward. We met in the lab, and I discussed the project and how I could contribute. We talked about the work format, its approximate duration, and the tasks involved. It was a simple process.
- What are your expectations for working on this project daily?
Intern
You get in through a selection process that evaluates your academic background (conferences, papers, internships, patents, GPA, etc.). In some places, if there's high competition for the scholarship position, there might be an interview with the group leader. There's no HR interview.
- What about your conferences, papers, internships, patents, and GPA?
Intern
They asked me questions about my academic average and my interests in research. They asked if I knew what it was like to work in research in Argentina, given the precarious situation. They also asked if I had other offers and why I wanted to pursue a PhD.
- Do you have a good average?
