Behavioral Technical

The interview happened ages after I applied. They didn't seem very interested in my technical and language skills that were mentioned in the job offer. What they really cared about was whether I was already living in Catalunya and if I was open to doing a PhD with low pay as a part-time research assistant, or if I was looking for PhD funding elsewhere and wasn't even considering this role. I looked into other options and then never heard back. I later found out they hired a university student who had less experience than me.

It was a call, they were very nice. It was an internship offer, they explained all the conditions. They were very kind to me, but I ended up declining the offer because I had a better proposal.
