First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Eurasia Foundation.
Program Assistant
I had a call with HR first, then a meeting with the team I'd be working with, and then I had to do a writing assignment for the job.
- Can you share your experience with international exchange programs?
Program Associate
First, I had a phone screening with a recruiter who was nice. After that, there was a panel interview with three interviewers. They were kind of rude and standoffish, and didn't seem interested in my answers. There was also a language test, and part of the interview was conducted in a different language.
- Tell me about how you handle managing competing timelines and priorities.
Program Officer
The process felt very bureaucratic formally, but in the end, your salary and benefits are limited by how much you ask. You'll face a panel of 4-5 people who will ask you different questions, though the CEO often has a significant influence. It's best to focus on your skills and qualifications and how they match the job requirements. Just state the facts and matching points clearly.
- Considering the low wages and benefits, why are you interested in working for a nonprofit organization?
Communications Associate
I never heard back after the interview, not even to be told I wasn't selected. I get that they don't reply to all applications, but candidates they actually invite for an interview? They could at least send an email. It was super weird, the first time this has ever happened to me.
- A test of Russian language skills was administered.
