I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at UC San Diego (San Diego, CA) in Mar 2019
Interview
It highly depends on your research experience and the professor will ask you some simple questions about your previous works as well as researches. And most of the time, all you have to do is relax and give the information you know and let them know your abilities. Good Luck!
Phone and then zoom interview. The interview was average and pleasant. First there was an HR phone call, then a call with the supevisor, then a zoom interview with a couple of employees. The last round of interview is with the manager themselves.
Got an interview from a biomechanics lab. It was mainly focused on their research topics and gauging if it fits my background. I only shared my background for 15 minutes, and that was enough for them to make decisions.
