Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Springer Nature (New York, NY)
Colloquio
Interviewed for a position at NSMB. Very friendly atmosphere. Had 3 rounds- first was an manuscript evaluation with a 2 hour turnaround time and turning in a written report. Second was a 1-1 with the senior editor with questions on my research experience and general interests. Third was 2 manuscript evaluations with a one hour turnaround time, followed by a discussion of my evaluations with the entire team. Though I didn't get the job, I thought the evaluation was fair and the process was interesting/thorough.
