I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Turing (Nairobi) in Oct 2024
Interview
Began by completing an online test to evaluate high school and pre-medical level biology proficiency.
Got invited to an interview to discuss their expertise and problem-solving abilities.
I was asked to conduct a short teaching session involving multi-modal data to demonstrate their ability to explain complex concepts clearly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the difference between haemoglobin and myoglobin?
Can you explain the technique of gene conversion?
What are the main chemical, functional, and morphological differences between peroxisomes and lysosomes?
Can you describe a time when you had to explain a complex biological concept to someone without a science background? How did you ensure they understood?
