First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at FINCA International.
Loan Officer
So first, there's a written exam, then a one-on-one interview. After that, they train you for 3 weeks. Then there's a final exam to see if you qualify. If you pass that, you'll do a branch attachment.
- Can you tell me about yourself and your job expenses?
Procurement Specialist
This interview felt pretty one-sided and kinda awkward. Right from the start, I got the vibe that HR had already decided not to hire me. Their whole demeanor felt dismissive, and instead of it being a real conversation, it was more like an interrogation. I didn't feel like they were actually considering me as a candidate, and the whole time, I felt pressured, which made it tough to have a fair back-and-forth. It was a really discouraging experience overall, and I felt undervalued.
- What actions would you take if you discovered that a necessary item is currently out of stock?
Senior Manager
The administrative staff are all very friendly. There's a strong emphasis on being "business-like" and "bank-like". The culture lacks that passion for mission-driven work that many other non-profits have. The initial interview was a small group interview led by an employee and joined by a consultant. The second and final interview was with the department's VP. The interview process varies depending on the position. For very senior jobs, there are more rounds of interviews.
- Why do you want to work here?
- Why are you interested in FINCA?
- Can you tell me a bit about yourself?
Marketing Communications
The interview process was a bit long and involved for the position. I had a preliminary phone interview, an assignment to complete, and then three separate in-person interviews that required me to take time off and visit their offices three times over a month. It wasn't a terrible process but could be streamlined a bit to be more considerate of candidates' time.
- Can you discuss your previous experience and its relevance to this position?
- How have you handled conflict resolution in the past?
