First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Lincoln Institute of Land Policy.
Policy Analyst
I applied online in Sept 2023 and got a response in early Oct about being shortlisted for a 30-minute phone screen with the hiring manager. The turnaround was fast and the process felt really smooth and professional. Sadly, the hiring was put on hold indefinitely, but the interviewer asked really insightful questions about my research and fieldwork experience.
- Could you describe your research methodology?
- How do you approach problem-solving?
- What's your strategy for managing stakeholder relationships?
Communications Director
I applied for and interviewed with this organization's Center for Community Investment, which is basically a separate org and in a different city than the main one. The application process was a bit different. I emailed my stuff and then was contacted to set up an in-person interview a couple weeks out. The following week, before the in-person interview, I got a surprise writing test via email. They gave me several days, but I was out of town, which was a bit inconvenient. The first email for the writing test missed some materials, which they sent a day later, but it still felt unorganized. The writing test had three parts and took a long time, and I felt they asked for too much detail that applicants wouldn't know yet. The biggest surprise, though, was at the in-person interview. I was in a conference room with three other people, and nobody told me who I'd be interviewing with or for how long. They just called it a 2-hour interview. Right away, they told me the role had changed since I applied – it was downgraded from director to manager, and one of the interviewers was taking over the director role. They should have told me this beforehand. I did ask why they made that decision, but after hearing this, I knew I wasn't really interested anymore because it wasn't the level I wanted.

Administrative Coordinator
It took weeks for the first interview to be scheduled. The HR team stopped replying after the first interview. Next steps were clear, and they took another 6 weeks to respond, and I wasn't selected for the role.
