Summary

Pending synthesis from local Obsidian source.

Original source title: Wolfram Research Interview General Application

Extracted Preview

Applied @ Wolfram Research, heard back from the recruiter and she wants to have a quick chat about my experience and the position.

Try keeping the conversation free flowing. Playfully try to ask her questions as well. Get a framework on how will this thing flow and try to stay as lite as possible.

Questions to ask her(maybe at the end)

1. What is something you found interesting in my profile

2. Are there any new interesting projects that are going on at Wolfram?

3. What does your day to day involve? Do you work from the headquarters?

4. Is there any VISA - assistance provided, I want to work onsite or remote is an option?

"How long do you want to work with us ?" - As long as you find my performance up to the standards - which I hope will be a long time.

"What is your motivation to work at Wolfram Research?" There's a saying that you are average of the 5 people who you are most close with. I've learnt a lesson really early in my life that I need to surround myself with really smart and talented people and learn from them - which I can find @ Wolfram Research.

"What kind of position you are applying for?" I hope to apply for a summer internship @ Wolfram which may convert to a full time role - although I'm much more flexible and we discuss more about what you guys are offering.

"Weakness?" I think in the past, I was not someone who try to take the easy path in any situation, and try to over-complicate it. This is something that I've learnt the hard way and now I'm constantly making sure that
