I had an email interview process. They asked me technical questions about my previous research and asked if I was really interested in doing advanced research in Power Electronics. After a few email exchanges, they confirmed my graduate admission and gave me a fellowship for two years. Later, I got funded as a teaching assistant.

Met with a potential professor to talk about some project ideas. If you have a cool project in mind, the process is pretty easy. It just takes a really long time to get started after you're "hired". we talked about my studies, past jobs, and my goals as a research assistant.
