I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at University of Maryland in Feb 2023

Interview

For a position in the Department of Computer Science. Did an initial group interview about a month after applying, followed two weeks later by a three hour writing test and interview. I was offered the position by the department chair where I then reminded them I was looking for remote work, which seems to have caught them off guard. I heard nothing for nearly three weeks despite follow-up emails and voicemails, until they told me they couldn't support remote, a frustrating amount of time to be left in the dark.
