I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at NIH (Bethesda, MD) in June 2014

Intense with a panel of professors and principal investigators. I felt stressed because it was a group interview but I slowly relaxed into the session. I sat at a table surrounded by 6 people who took turns asking me a series of questions.
