Virginia Tech GTA interview questions

It depends on the department you are working with.It could be really hard or too easy. For me it was really easy to get in but kinda hard to survive. But i Loved it

I needed funding to continue with my PhD studies, so applied for it. Was hired because senior graduate student and had required qualification for the course. Plus funding constraints. No negotiations are required. Its a fixed salary, same for everybody. The experience is pretty good, plus you learn a lot about the teaching methodology and course material. Its worth doing atleast one graduate teaching assistant in your student carrier. Undergrad TA can also be useful.
