Notes
I applied at the end of the application period when the program sent an email saying that there were still positions available. Got ~30 hours notice and no flexibility for a panel interview over Zoom. 5 of the 6 panelists made it very clear that they felt I was wasting their time (6th was youngest, and newest to faculty). Would not recommend this program unless you are dead set on it and can stand up for yourself. I have BScs in chemistry and physics and 8 years experience in various laboratories, was treated with significantly more respect by professors in other programs.
