Question 1
Motivation to apply, previous roles, academic qualifications
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ZEW (Mannheim) in Aug 2020
Interview
The interview went well and the interviewers are nice, both of them are from the same research group. First introduce the potential tasks and then ask questions. The interview lasted for 45 minutes.
The whole chat is pleasant, there is only one interview with the researcher fellows and no HR people are involved in the whole procedure. I basically enjoyed the interview, it was constructive.
