Case Presentation

I had a 30-minute panel interview with three other people. They had a standard list of questions they asked. Before that, I did a case study that they gave me over the weekend. At the end, I could ask my questions. There was a long wait, about 2 months, between the interview and getting the offer.

The interview process was through Howard University, and the people were great. They wanted to know how I conduct myself and if I'm a strong researcher. They seemed to think that if I had done any college research projects, I would be good for what they were expecting. The whole thing took about 30 minutes.
