I applied online. I interviewed at University of Basel (Basel) in Oct 2023
Interview
Apply via email and get an interview invitation, and get an offer. The interview was more about who I am, and a very few technical question. But it varies from one group to another. I have applied for computer science.
I applied in the beginning of May for an open PhD position at Basel and I got invited for a short (30min) interview in mid-May. I had to also prepare a presentation of 2-3 slides of my master's topic.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard interview questions. Tell me about yourself, why do you want a PhD, why this group, strength and weaknesses
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at University of Basel (Basel) in Jan 2012
Interview
It was very easy interview. People were very nice. Interview was full day with coffee and lunch breaks. First I was talking with group leader, afterwards gave a presentation in front of group (5-10 people). After that I had short chat with each member of the lab. Standart questions, nothing fancy. Got job next day.
