I got the opportunity through a student who was leaving that lab for another one more to his liking and referred me. The only questions I was asked by the Professor centered on my experience and knowledge of the area of expertise and how flexible I could possibly be. I responded with honesty, stating that I had no experience outside of attending labs for classes, and my flexibility would be limited to do days a week. The Professor was very accommodating and stressed the importance of obtaining experience for future opportunities.
