I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Howard University
Interview
Graduate Students, do not go and seek Research Assistantship position in CESaC - Center for Energy and Control Systems. 90% of students there never graduate. Even if you find yourself already in the program, please opt out before you take thesis. The RA being offered by the director is more like slavery work. A word is enough for the wise.
