Everything was super clear: the vacancy, the deadlines, and the communication. Had nice and professional conversations, and I was always kept well informed. Ultimately not chosen, but I still look back on it with a good feeling – everything went smoothly and with respect. Truly a great experience!

Had a face-to-face meeting with the group leaders. It was a classic Q&A session. I presented my previous work, and they gave a brief presentation about the project. We discussed potential collaboration and how my past experience could benefit the project. It was an overall light scientific discussion.
