Went well. interviewed with managers first, then researchers. There was a programming assignment. Whole process was online and over the phone. Be prepared to answer specific questions about your programming experience and ask about interviewers' research.

Have you ever had to ask for help from a colleague on a programming question?
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso RAND nel mese di mar 2023

Spoke with the manager of the position and was then required to complete a programming assignment within 48 hours. Completed the assignment within 24 hours and was told I would be contacted shortly but wasn't. I had to reach out to them to find out I wasn't selected. They didn't give feedback on the assignment I spent all night completing. They can easily disregard the applicant when they find they no longer want them.

Please complete the following programming challenge. We aren't looking for exact programming syntax so you can write however you want (SAS, R, Python, etc)

Two phone interviews, they asked about my experience working with data in a research setting.
One programming quiz, not timed.
One video interview.
Two days of interviews- 5 total with researchers and HR. Try to be familiar with the work of the researchers you're interviewing with, but nobody expects you to know everything about their work :)
The whole process took about a month, and everyone was really friendly.
