Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Stanford University (Stanford, CA)
Colloquio
I met with my current advisor several times over the last year of my PhD to discuss collaborative projects. We worked together on a collaboration over the last year of my PhD, which led to the postdoc. This allowed me to demonstrate the types of contributions I could make on his research team.

Rather than a formal interview process, I worked directly with my now advisor on a collaborative project.

Colloquio
Rigorous and straightforward. Most questions were asked pertaining to your past research experience and how can our expertise contribute to new role. I did an online zoom interview with PI and fellow lab members

Colloquio
I submitted an online form where I had to select education level, add a cover letter and of course my CV. This is a postdoc position so naturally I know that a PhD is necessary for it and I have one. It was also mentioned and/or implied at least 10 times on my application documents (for example, referring to my doctoral work or my postdoctoral work). After not hearing anything for over a month, I reached out to the professor to express my continued interest and I got a dry one liner saying "sorry you need a phd". I responded politely that I have one but never heard back. So much for world class research.
