      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Smithsonian (Washington, DC) in Jan 2013

      Interview

      The first step was a phone interview with standard interview questions, followed by an in-person interview consisting of one-on-one interviews, a group interview, and a skills test assessing verbal, quantitative, and technical skills. After the in-person interview, the supervisor asked for and checked in with references before making an offer.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Smithsonian (Washington, DC)

      Interview

      There was a 30 minute phone interview followed by a panel interview and then one where I gave a presentation. So two separate in-person interviews and then there was a final Skype interview with the management team. So four interviews in total before receiving an offer for the position. Then they needed to do background checks. So it was a lengthy process.
