Research Background and Career Narrative Questions

How a researcher tells the story of their academic and professional trajectory: the through-line connecting past projects, the thesis or flagship work, and what motivates their research interests. Interviewers use this to gauge depth, coherence of intellectual direction, and self-awareness about growth. It anchors the rest of a research interview by establishing what the candidate has actually done and why.
