Behavioral Technical

There's usually just one interview round, and it's mostly behavioral. They'll ask about your resume, so make sure you're ready for that. You might also have to do live demos of projects you've worked on. It's a good idea to look into the IAE more to show you know what they do.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you tell me a bit about yourself?

Behavioral

The interview process had two parts, one with a team and another in-person on campus, attended by other HR leaders and HRBPs. The first interview was 45 minutes and the second was about an hour long. Generally, the interviews were easy and straightforward. As is common for academic positions, expect good benefits, but potentially lower salary if you receive and accept an offer.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you describe a time you managed a challenging employee situation?
