I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Samsung Electronics (Seoul) in Aug 2018
Interview
After my PhD, I had an interview with Samsung Research where interview consists of two phase: 1) technical interview: 3-5 min presentatations regarding your career and/or research works (should be prepared by interviewee) followed by relevant questions. For research departments, it is better to emphasize impacts of your research (citation, high profile journals/conferences).
2) beahavioral interview: the questions that I had to answer was whether if I think I am better than one of my previous co-workers colleges and if so, the corresponding reasons.
