I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Rockefeller University (Ithaca, NY) in Feb 2016
Interview
I had applied through my school's recruitment portal. The interview happened on campus, conducted by a Human Resources person. They asked about my research and the skills listed on my resume. 3 letters of recommendation were required.
Very simple, one interview with HR, second interview with hiring manager. Then waited for 1 month and received the offer letter. The HR person first came to college to talk about the University

This is a very professional and organized interview. First HR interview and then lab will reach out. Easy application and follow up steps. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to get into research.
