I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Purdue University (West Lafayette, IN) in Feb 2021
Interview
Long time ago, found out about open role in lab by talking with professor. He reviewed my grades, and my job interests and my desire to get hands on experience.
You have a choice of doing a zoom or in person interview. Dress professionally, and make sure to have a blank and quiet background. The interviewers know that you are a student.
It’s a round interview, each round have some specific questions about leadership and communication skills, and at the end it seems like every current employee will decide if this person is the fit for the team or not.
