I applied online. I interviewed at Indiana University (Bloomington, IN) in Apr 2025
Interview
The interview process was short and sweet. I came in with my resume but they did not need to see it. There were a few questions from the department heads; fairly general, like about who I was, what I was studying, how I might deal with a difficult teammate or a lot of tasks at once. They walked me out after my interview, wishing me well.

Question 1
Someone comes in with a question you don't know the answer to; what do you do?
The initial interview was a phone interview followed by an in-person meeting with the team and direct supervisor. Overall, the process was logical and easy to follow, while I did not get an offer for this position (it went to an internal candidate) they seemed to like my qualifications and indicated that they wish that they did have a place on their team.
