The process took 3 weeks. The hiring manager askek background, including my undergraduate and graduate projects and experience.
Interview Questions
The most unexpected interview question is talking about my undergraduate project, which is Mathematical Modeling Contest Project, and which method I used? I didn't answer this question well, because I didn't expect that and I almost forget about the method. I only can memorize some of it.

The other unexpected question would be writing down the forward formula. I didn't answer it right.
I think the next time I should prepare my resume much better before going to interview. And it is also important to understand what the interviewer ask and answer what information he/she want.
