Intern
The interview process was straightforward with two interviews. The first was with the main director, and the second was with the supervisor. It's important to be well-versed in your area of study. For example, I was asked in detail about US-China relations and a summit that had just occurred.
- Could you discuss a recent news story concerning China and share your perspective on it?
