I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Mad Science
Interview
2 interviews: one is a demo of an experiment in a group setting to assess enthusiasm and ability to engage kids and the other is a formal interview to assess professional skills and interest.
Virtual Group Interview where a presentation was required, followed by a second one on one virtual interview for successful applicants. Host made the group feel comfortable. A lot of information was shared about the company so you have a good understanding of the expectations of the job.
