I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Yale University (New Haven, CT) in Jul 2025
Interview
I received a request for an interview about a week after being forwarded to the hiring manager. I had my second interview 4 business days later and then I was ghosted for 3 weeks before receiving an automated rejection email. Left a bad taste because usually I get a personalized rejection with feedback after getting so far. They ignored my two emails with follow up questions even though they said please email with any questions.
It was a great interview with an easy going team of two women. They were both fun to talk to. It was scheduled quickly and the interviews were not overly long.
