Un entretien par visio en différé, puis un physicien m'a contactée et on a continué le processus de cette manière, ça a été plutôt rapide. Ensuite il faut attendre la date donnée du CERN pour voir si le profil a effectivement été retenu
It was not too difficult. It firstly asked to introduce myself. Then I was told why I am motivated to work for cern. Then they asked if I had applied to other organisation.
