It has been a while since my last interview. It happened in 2011. At that time, I got an offer from a PI in Argonne, and I just shortly met the PI.

Application
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Argonne National Laboratory (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2023
Interview
Total 4 hrs interview including committee meeting, research presentation, group researcher meeting. For the research presentation, it was processed within 1 hr, including a Q&A session. The atmosphere was good.
A whole day interview including presentation and several rounds of mini interviews. The interviews are easy, several technical questions regarding to the talk and some vision style questions that related to your career development. People there are very friendly and caring.

gave a 40 min talk + Q&A + one-to-one meetings with future supervisors/ collaborators/ colleagues. There are also group discussions at the end. Overal, the interview was a little bit time-consuming, but everyone is very nice.
