The interviewer asked me to create a PowerPoint presentation about my experience with the required tools. So, a 15-minute PPT covers most of the interview. It takes 2months or more for DLR to make a contract. Hence, it is necessary to prepare for a job there ahead.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would one determine the time it takes for a specific MD simulation to run?
Initial interview with questions asked about motivation, qualification, grades and expertise. Talk about past work experience (if no work experience then about university project, Bachelor thesis, additional projects). There will be questions about the thesis topic you applied for, and questions concerning suitable skills for the topic, i.e how do you plan on solving it, what is your working style/organization methods etc.
