Presentation Behavioral
I applied online and got an interview invite via email. Since I was abroad, the interview was on Skype. I had to give a 15-minute presentation on my research, followed by a panel discussion about my past work, skills, and future goals. We also discussed my motivation for applying and why I'm a good fit. A couple of days later, I got a job offer over the phone.
