I submitted my statement of faith, cover letter, and CV. Then I had an interview screening with a recruiter. After that, I was invited for the actual interview with 2 interviewers, the department head and line manager.

Behavioral

You'll apply online first, which is pretty competitive. You generally need prior experience in the field you're applying for. There's one recruiter for all intern and fellow positions at IJM. He's a really nice guy and seems genuinely interested in everyone. The interview with him was great because it felt like he wasn't just going through a list of questions, but was having a real conversation. If you get past him, you'll then talk to the person who will likely be your direct manager during the internship.

  • What made you want to apply for this role?

Behavioral Technical

I had two interviews. First, a recruiter called me, and then I spoke with the person I'd be reporting to. They asked general questions about my background and why I applied. They also asked if I'd be open to different job duties. I was also asked some behavioral questions about handling disagreements, showing leadership, and working with others.
