The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at US Department of Energy (Washington, DC) in Apr 2024
Interview
Different offices are different. BTO had one interview, while SETO had 2 rounds and a 30-minute presentation of your choice. The first round is one person and the second is the leader of SETO, and the third is everyone on your team in a presentation.

They asked me to make a 30-minute presentation. In the interview, they asked what experience I had that showed my passion for the role.
First round virtual interview with 3 people, standard questions. This was for an early career fellowship so it was focused on educational achievements rather than career focused questions. Did not advance to next round of interviews
