First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Clinton Health Access Initiative.
Program Manager
I interviewed for the role in Jan 2021. It was a 4 stage process. The first stage was with HR/international recruiter. The recruiter was nice and warm, and explained the whole process, including salary and benefits. The second step was a 3-hour written test, which involved a case scenario to assess my Excel, Word, and PowerPoint skills. The third stage was with one of the line managers, and the interview was more technical/program specific.
- Can you describe a challenging stakeholder management situation?
- What is your preferred leadership style?
Senior Program Manager
The first step was a phone interview with the East Africa recruitment team, which was good and straightforward. After that, I did a technical exercise and then spoke with the Country Director. They said they wanted me to proceed to the next stage to meet some of the team for a more technical interview. However, a month has passed with no follow-up, even after I sent an email.
- What are your typical responses to certain situations, and how would you handle specific scenarios related to this role?
Program Manager
So far I've been through 3 interviews. The first was an intro chat with someone from Global Acquisition; they wanted to know why I'm interested in the role, what I know about CHAI, my management approach, and how I work with people, plus my main skills. The second one was to check my Excel, presentation, and communication skills. I was given a case study to finish within 48 hours, but I could only spend 3 hours on it. The third interview was supposed to be one-on-one but turned into a conversation with two people from the global team. They asked about my grasp of the role, how I'd handle some made-up situations, my management style, and my knowledge of important health financing topics.
- Can you share your knowledge about CHAI?
- Could you tell us about yourself and your background?
- What's your approach to management?
