I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Columbia University in July 2023
Interview
Online (zoom) 20 min interview. Not complicated, two individuals from the company participated. Made a choice 10 days after the interview. Seemed a little uninterested in my interview, questions were mostly generic.

Question 1
What is your motivation to apply for this position?
Three separate interviews: Principal Investigators, Division Head, & Coordinators. All through zoom scheduled in advanced. Each approximately took 30 minutes. Asked about my background, work experience, working styles, and outside hobbies
Easy, asked about prior experiences, strengths and weaknesses, how could I contribute to the research center. Overall, very easy. Be prepared for multiple rounds, however. Like I said, it seemed to be a very seamless process. I have had harder interviews in the past
