I met with the professor I would work for at his office and he asked me about my current work. He wanted me to be able to focus on the research. While he would give me time for my studies, he did not want to compete with another area of employment. That was the make it or break it in receiving the job. He was willing to negotiate pay and I felt like it was fair.

It was a pretty simple and straight forward process. The doctors were stern but incredibly nice. They worked along the way with me when I had an overestimated amount of stress. I would try again if I ever move back!
