So, I had a couple of interviews for this role. First up was a chat with the research team, and then there was a research test I had to do, like a written thing. The people interviewing me were pretty chill and I felt comfortable discussing my past work and why I'm into their project.

For both interviews I've done here, they were really focused on literature review experience, so make sure you're ready to talk about that. I think most processes start with a virtual interview with one person and then move on to an interview with more senior researchers on the team.
