I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Hudsonalpha (Huntsville, AL) in July 2015
Interview
Objective and realistic. I gave a presentation of my past and present work. Received several questions from the audience, made from other scientists, postdocs, PhD students and of course the PIs of the institute. Subsequently I was presented with several potential projects that I could get involved with and/or lead.
