Program Manager
So the interview process involved a few parts. First, there was an assessment that looked at how much I knew about international affairs and global human development. Then, there was a conversation that lasted about an hour, and finally, a writing task that was all about project management.
- Could you share an example using the STAR method of a time you've dealt with a situation?
- Tell me about an experience you had with international affairs and global human development.
- Can you discuss your project management skills and how they relate to this role?
Program Manager
The interview process was unprofessional without respect for the interviewee. First, you receive an email for a written questionnaire screen. If you pass, you are invited to a phone screen. The HR peer was nice, however, she was late and that left no time for me to ask questions. She asked I email her questions. I did and no response. A few days later I was invited for a panel interview. I tried to take this in stride and tel myself I had another opportunity to ask the questions to a panel. During the panel, one of the interviewers "forgot" he was to sit on this and showed up 30 minutes late, interrupted me mid response to a question and said to us he forgot. The interview went further down hill when he asked questions that were already presented and I was told to move on by the other two with 2 sentences. To the panelist that was unprofessional, DT, karma will catch up to you. I have no idea what next steps are. I checked out and stopped responding. I wouldn't want to work for a team or company that has unprofessional staff. At the time of writing this, I have no idea my fate of this interview.
- Questions were reflective of my resume, requiring a deeper dive.
Program Manager
It was great until they stopped responding after the third interview. I expected more from such a big company and their hiring team. Hope others have a better experience, I think it's a good company though.
- Could you describe your background and experience?
- What do you consider your greatest strengths and areas for development?
- Can you share an example of a difficult situation you encountered and how you handled it?
