Group Presentation Behavioral

It was a group oriented and individual interview session, all held in a single room with a table and chairs, and refreshments were provided. There was a presentation followed by both group and individual interviews. Lunch was part of the interview day. I also got a tour of the facility, which was nice.

It was not stressful at all. The work people were very helpful and created a stress-free environment. They gave us plenty of time for any questions we had. The staff were extremely kind and helpful, and they seemed genuinely interested in finding like-minded individuals for the job.

The interview process for my internship was very straight forward and well organized. I was contacted via email for a follow-up phone interview. From that initial screening I was then asked to come into the office for an in-person interview where I had a informal interview while I was being shown around the office building and then had a formal sit down interview with the individual that would be my direct report.

Presentation Technical Behavioral

I had a whole-day on-site interview in SC. It started with a presentation in the morning, then went into regular 1-1 interviews. A lot of the interview questions weren't related to my projects or presentation, seeming more like random thinking questions or outside my field. They seemed to expect faculty-level knowledge across science and engineering, not just my specific area, perhaps valuing broad and deep knowledge. The experience wasn't great; some interviewers were insincere, others outright unpleasant. Be ready for anything if you get an invite.
