I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2025
Interview
Participated in a 15 minute screener, then was scheduled for an interview in person with 4 members of the research team. Each person went around asking me questions, described a little about the role, and then gave me time to ask my own. Pretty standard, pleasant, and fast interview process.
