I applied online. I interviewed at ITER in Oct 2024
Interview
Very long process (several months) despite having a single interview.
The questions are pre-established (meaning they are the same for every candidate). Extremely specific to the job description, the applicant resume ignored so it is hard to sell your relevant experience expect if you already have exactly the same job.
