I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Columbia University (New York, NY) in May 2016
Interview
I applied for the job through a job-posting in school as they were looking for UI/UX Research interns. Interestingly, there are no UI/UX classes that teaches design thinking so most of my knowledge on UI/UX was self-taught. The interview was conducted at the usability lab, I interviewed with a developer and the lead UI/UX designer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why are you interested in UI/UX?
What sort of knowledge about the industry do you have?
