I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Stony Brook University (Stony Brook, NY) in Aug 2014
Interview
I was asked about my work experiences dealing with customers. I didn't have a strong technical background, but the interviewees were able to overlook this because they needed more students working. They were very polite and interested in my background.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: What strategy would you employ if you were following procedure and a personal computer's memory was wiped? Would you feel comfortable explaining this to a fellow student?
