Question 1
More details about previous projects and what I can contribute to their new project
Got an interview invitation a week after the job ad deadline. The interview was scheduled for the next day after I received the invitation because it was a short-term temporary role, and they needed to use the funding by a certain deadline. The interview went well: there were two interviewers, and they asked both technical and communication-focused questions. Afterwards, I received an email asking about my visa status and whether I could provide an additional referee. I then received an official offer a week after the interview.

Interview
I applied online. Heard back from the professor directly, scheduled an informal meeting, more to elaborate on the open project and to understand if my background and interests align. After that we scheduled a more extensive interview, work presentation slot and meeting-with-the-lab sessions. Enjoyed every bit of the process. Good discussions with the prof and lab. But I didn't get the offer, was informed over email after 1.5 weeks. However, I really appreciated that the prof also provided me with feedback in the email.
