It was an easy interview process, the interviewers were super welcoming. They were looking for standard experience and basic background details. Make sure to come prepared with questions. The whole thing was seamless and done over video chat. They got back to me quickly, within the week.

It was a typical academic interview process. Since it's for a PhD position, I reached out to the potential advisor first. During the initial phone conversation, we discussed my research and their ongoing projects. They asked some academic questions to gauge my research experience.

I applied online. I tried reaching out to professors beforehand but didn't hear back. So, I got in touch with the office manager and they responded. After submitting my application, I got a reply within a month. The interview was fast, done over Skype. They emailed me before to let me know about the interview process and the date.
