Behavioral Presentation
The interview process involved a campus visit with a dinner and several personality-based questions. The flyout interview concluded with candidates delivering a 30-minute presentation on their thesis. The overall atmosphere of the town was positive. My advice is to emphasize your passion for teaching over research.

I was called in for an all-day onsite interview that lasted from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. I met with several different people for one-on-one discussions. The conversation was mostly about my previous experience and my education. They showed me around the entire workplace and all the labs, and explained what was expected of me. There weren't any specific questions beyond getting to know each other.
