Behavioral Technical Presentation
I applied and got an email from HR asking some questions about how I do research and share information. Then, I had an in-person interview at their open office with a young team. I was given a 30-minute written test on understanding what makes a good research summary. After that, someone from the research team discussed my research methods. Finally, a senior person, likely the head of research, asked me questions about my personality and fit for the role.

Technical Behavioral Presentation
I initially applied for the Research Associate role online, possibly through LinkedIn or Indeed. Within a few days, they emailed me some questions about research and presentation skills. A few days later, I was invited for an in-person interview. Upon arrival for my 1:00 PM interview, an HR representative met me at 12:55 PM and got me settled. The first part involved a 30-minute assessment with three straightforward questions. This was followed by two interviews with members of the research team, where they asked standard questions, as well as about my research background and methods. I was contacted two days later for a second round with more senior members of Relationship Science, which felt more like a fit assessment than a typical interview. I received an offer the next day via email.

Behavioral Technical
I applied online for a research associate role, but they reached out about a client development associate position instead. There wasn't a phone screen, just an in-person interview. The reception was friendly, and so were the people I saw. The interview was pretty straightforward, basically covering my resume and why I wanted to work there. Since this was my first interview after college, I was really nervous, and I think I lost the interviewer's interest pretty early on. The whole thing took about 20 minutes. I sent a thank-you email and heard back two weeks later.

Behavioral Technical Case Presentation
The interview process took a day and consisted of 4 rounds. The first round was an introduction round where they asked about my background and personal info. The second round focused on grammar and vocabulary and was a bit difficult. The third round was an essay writing task where I had to read an article and rewrite it as an essay in my own words. Finally, there was a manager round. My previous experience gave me an edge. They are looking for candidates with good English skills and stability.

- There's a scenario where a group of children are playing near two railway tracks, one active and one abandoned. Most children are on the active track, but one child is on the abandoned track. A train is coming. You're at the track interchange and can divert the train to the abandoned track, saving most of the children, but sacrificing the one child on the abandoned track. Alternatively, you can let the train continue on its current path. What would you do?
