I have an interview for a 3/5 year post doc position later in the week, I am SUPER prepared for the interview questions, presentation and technical knowledge surrounding the signalling pathways and techniques etc.
But the first part of the interview is a "60 minute written work-related task, which will include elements relating to the job description. You are not required to do any preparation for the work-related task".
I can only assume its being presented with a data heavy paper and critiquing it, how you would validate the work, or maybe writing the abstract, limitations of the study etc? Maybe a basic numeracy test for solutions and volumes and molar concentrations?!
I have no idea what to expect and am stressing my head off because its the only part of the interview i feel I cannot prepare for!
Does anyone have any experience of written tests for post doc interviews!
Any help would be much appreciated!
