First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Inter-American Development Bank.
Intern
So the interview panel was made up of four people, all with different levels of experience. Three of them were from the main office, and one was from a country office. They kicked things off with a quick introduction and then asked a total of 4 questions, with each person on the panel asking one. After that, I got to ask them some questions about what the bank does.
- What value do you think you can add to our team?

I applied for the intern position on the IDB page. About three weeks after applying, I got an email asking for my availability for an interview, giving me three date options.

- Why are you interested in working for the IDB?
- What are your reasons for wanting to join this particular department?
- Could you share your future aspirations?
