I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at CAL POLY (San Luis Obispo, CA) in Oct 2023
Interview
It was almost a three month process. There was an online application (the job was posted on their website, LinkedIn, Google, and a few other places I think). The process involved a zoom interview, an in-person interview, a resume review, a presentation, and a casual coffee. There was a reference check in the final stages.
