First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Erasmus MC.
Intern
First a few questions about yourself and why you want this position. Then asked about your research experience and some more specific questions about that. They raise a specific situation and you need to explain how to handle it.
- Can you introduce yourself and tell me why you're interested in this program?
PhD Candidate
The interview process involved a single round that led directly to an offer. This round consisted of two main parts: first, I presented on a topic selected by the interviewers, and then I presented my previous work from my Master's degree.
- Can you discuss your background and the work you have accomplished so far?
- Please give a presentation on a topic that was assigned to you.
- Could you present your Master's research findings?
Research Intern
The application process was super easy and user-friendly, with simple questions about my past research. It was quick to finish and showed how accessible the application is. Asking about prior research made it personal, letting me share my academic and professional background. Overall, the easy application and focus on past research made for a good and fast experience.
- Tell me about the biggest difficulty you encountered during your previous research experience.
Research Technician
I went through two interview rounds for this role. It was supposed to be a replacement for someone who left. The group leader was late a lot, couldn't confirm if the grant money was approved for the work, and even scheduled a meeting with someone from another department during my interview slot. Because of all this, I decided to pass on the opportunity.
- Why do you want to go back to academia?
- How do you deal with stress or failure?
