Candidature
J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez UC Davis (Davis, CA) en mars 2013
Entretien
Very Informal. You will most of the time know the Professor prior to be hired. But if you do not be sure to read up on the work being asked of you prior to the interview. These interviews are often a feeling out process and how well you will work together...
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
What kind of databases do you have experience using?
Applications start early so be looking well before you need the position. Interviews are fair but be prepared to answer questions about your qualifications for the position. My interview was on zoom but was during the pandemic.
