I applied online. I interviewed at SRI International (Washington, DC)
Interview
The process started with your average screening call with someone from HR to see how your experiences lined up with the requirements as stated in the posting. They definitely stressed that they wanted to hear what you yourself have worked on (not just what your team has done). There were some sort of odd questions, like “What is the definition of technology?” which was unexpected. They then brought me in for a series of panel interviews which took around 2.5 hours. They once again wanted to hear more about my experience and what I was looking for. They also wanted to hear about my academic experiences and how they lined up with the department. There wasn’t anything particularly unexpected asked.
Series of in-person panel interviews (one candidate at a time with staff ranging in seniority) asking about background, previous work experience, why research, why SRI. Felt fairly informal. Interviewers used protocol. Everyone was friendly.
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at SRI International
Interview
The process was very smooth and team-oriented. I could tell that much attention was paid to transparency, efficiency, and communication with me as a prospective employee. As part of the in-person interview, I was provided with a short walking tour of the campus, which helped me to get a sense of the work environment and culture outside of the structured interview setting.
