The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Boston University in Jan 2009
Interview
Found and applied for the job on BU's website. Got a call within about a week from a department staff member and had a 1:1 with her and the same day a 1:1 with another staff member. A week later, I was brought back for a panel with two staff members and the future boss. About a week after that, HR called me in and "interviewed" me again, but after 15 minutes of banter gave me an offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked fairly general questions about my work style, goals, qualifications, etc. Nothing too hardball.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Boston University (Boston, MA) in Dec 2010
Interview
I was a graduate student at BU and I just talked with one of the professors, so my case is not very general. The reviewer was rather nice, and mostly asked general questions.
