I applied online. I interviewed at New York State Psychiatric Institute in Aug 2020
Interview
I applied through the RFMH website early in the week. Got a phone interview for the end of the week. On the phone interview, the interviewer explained job duties and asked a few questions. I was ghosted right after.
Not even enough courtesy to send a follow-up (e.g., rejection email).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about your background and qualifications. How do they fit within the context of the role?

Interview
Very easy and the interviewer was friendly. I went through two rounds of interviews, the first with the lab coordinator and the second with the PI. Shortly after my interview with the PI, I was emailed with a job offer.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at New York State Psychiatric Institute (New York, NY) in Feb 2021
Interview
Had my first interview in January 2021 with a current research assistant. Second interview 2 weeks later with both research assistants. Had a third interview about a week later with the MDs and PhDs on the team, and met with the Principal Investigator the same week. I was offered the job the first day of March. Found out 350 people applied for the position, so it is competitive. Questions asked were, “why our lab specifically?” and, “how does this work fit into your future career plan?” “How does your past research experience prepare you for this role?”
