I applied in-person. I interviewed at Appalachian State (Boone, NC) in Sept 2011
Interview
I was asked to meet with a particular person in my department after I expressed interest in employment with the department while attending graduate school. I believe graduate students in the Technology Department are ideally paired up with a professor or mentor whose research interests are aligned with the student. My background enabled me to get involved in some building science research.

one interview with professor i’d be assigned to and head of department , straight forward questions about under grad and extra relevant curricular activities. no surprises. it was overall a quick process, 2 weeks between submitting application and interview.
