I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Vanderbilt University in Dec 2024
Interview
Zoom first round interview, four faculty members on the call, several open-ended questions about my research, teaching, and future research agenda. After that, finalists were brought to campus (I believe) but I was later told the position was cancelled (I think due to current federal funding issues)
Too many phases and complexed questioning. Following a very long guide, requiring lengthy responses and many times repetitive. Do not let you know the duration of an interview, which usually goes over 2 hours
