I applied through university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Blackpeak in Sept 2021
Interview
Had a Skype interview for an international internship. Very open conversation about the internship opportunity and expectations. Clear and professional communication from the team at all stages of the process.
3-4 rounds of interview (HR, team lead, senior management). Relatively straightforward and consistent with typical job interview (learning about your experience, why you want to join, experience with research). Language ability is quite important, and although most reports are written in English, ability to speak and listen in other languages is an advantage.
It was a long process, and I needed to complete a lengthy writing test. All the questions were fair but the time it took between interviews made the process overall negative. The entire process took too long in my opinion.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe yourself? How would you approach this issue? How did you complete the test in the way you did?
