I applied online. I interviewed at Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
Interview
Several steps to get to the final interview. Nice laid back people who were very welcoming. No offer but sounds like an exciting place to work and a great team. Would be an interesting topic to write about and learn about.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics (Waterloo, ON) in Mar 2015
Interview
They want to know that you've done your research and know a lot about the faculty. You should be prepared to answer the standard advancement/development questions:
What is the largest gift you have secured?
What is your process to move a prospect through the pipeline?
How have you handled an unpleasant co-worker or client?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A faculty member approaches you to say that a prospect has offered a gift to fund their research project. How do you handle the situation?
