Social Science Research Council Research Assistant interview questions

Good, long interview. I had a two-hour-long interview with multiple different sections. Was mostly asked about prior experience concerning the region relevant to the position. Overall, standard interview questions were asked.

I was recommended to the job by a friend. The interview was laid back and professional, with the person who would be overseeing me. It was some years ago so I don't remember specifics, and it was for a short-term position, so they probably didn't bring out the big guns anyway. But in general I think I was asked about my experience specific to the job at hand.
