Comment on [Discussion] Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out! / Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! - Ch. 120

Thankfully, it’s been almost 5 years since I was last job hunting, but I dread having to do it again. The interview process in my field is quite involved and it can take quite a while from the first phone screen to get through all the rounds and have a final decision.

Is this girl at the end one of Kiri’s classmates maybe?

On MangaDex someone identified her as the one Kiri confessed to and was rejected.

  I am a scientist in Pharma R&D. Though it feels like software sometimes. I have been mired in R Shiny code for the past week when I haven’t been in the lab.
  
  The interview process is long. After the initial phone screen, I have had to give ~1 hour presentation to the department that I am interviewing for, then a couple breakout interviews with different groups of potential coworkers and supervisors. This takes a full day pretty much. Then, if you are still in consideration, I have usually been asked back to speak with a couple people that either missed the first round of interviews or are external to the group I would be hired into, but work closely enough together that their opinion is valued. If you make it through all of that and are the chosen candidate, that is when you start a couple rounds of negotiation with HR to finalize the offer.
  
  For my first job when I left grad school, it was a bit over 2 months between the first phone interview to accepting an offer. It was about the same for my current role as well. I don’t even want to imagine how much more complicated it would all be if I was also having to discuss visa sponsorship. Most of my coworkers are non-citizens that came here (USA) for their PhD, so it is a frequent topic of discussion (especially now given the new administration) that I am always glad I don’t have to deal with.
