I applied online. I interviewed at Rutgers University (New Brunswick, NJ) in Jan 2022
Interview
Seamless and based on logical thinking, decision making competency. There is emphasis on continuous improvement in the role, hybrid work environment for all roles is also available. The professors are really helpful and available for guiding through the complex tasks in the project.
It was done with multiple professors and administrators from department. It has changed since I started, and the experience for incoming graduate students is more personalized. It is now a longer event and you will be also somewhat interviewed by other students so treat the entire experience as an interview.
Prettyy good. Depends on who you get. Most professors are good and kind. So nothing to worry I think. Just be ready to talk about undergrad experience and research experience.
Mainly ask about your previous research project. Also try to connect your project with the project the professor is interested in. May also ask basic ML knowledge according to your target professor.
