I applied through other source. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at UPMC (Pittsburgh, PA) in Jun 2011
Interview
I was brought in for an initial interview with the PI, and essentially told I would have the job as long as everything went through HR ok. I was set up to have a second interview with the rest of the staff a week later and then it took about a month for me to get contacted by someone in HR with an offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
None, just basic questions about my previous experience.
The interview process was fairly standard. I was asked about research experience on my resume and future plans (med school, phd, etc.) I was told more about the position and what the job would entail as well as the schedule.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UPMC (Pittsburgh, PA)
Interview
It was a one-round, 40 minute interview. I met with one of the research coordinators and another member of the lab. They were fairly nice, asked me standard questions about my experience, why I want to join their lab specifically, etc. and seemed genuinely engaged in what I had to say. It flowed more like a conversation than an interview, most of it was focused on my experience. I did not end up receiving a rejection email, but my portal was updated to "no longer in consideration" about a week later. When I asked for feedback, I was told that they already had a candidate in mind when the process started.
Very nice. Things flowed relatively well. We’re very direct in what type of person they were looking to hire and their expectations for the person taking over the new role.
