We had a Zoom meeting and then they hired me. It was just one interview, all done over Zoom. The questions seemed easy, but the actual work isn't if you don't do your research. You'll get the job if you have the skills they're looking for.

We started with a tour of the building, seeing the parts that are still under construction and also what could be my lab space. Then there was a research talk given to both students and professors. After that, I had one-on-one meetings with individual faculty members and the president. I also met with a group of students who didn't seem super enthusiastic. Finally, I had dinner with two faculty members.

They were really quick to set up interviews once the application period closed. I had a 20-minute video call with about five people from the hiring committee. They each asked me a question one after another, and then the chair talked more about the job details.
