First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Meridian International Center.
Communications Specialist
The interviewer talked about the company and the job, then asked me to tell them about my career. They asked more questions about my background. I got to ask questions at the end. They seemed into it but never told me their decision, even though they gave a timeline. I emailed to check in but never heard back.
- Can you share your experience with communicating to different, specific groups of people?
Program Coordinator
After submitting my application online, I received an email a few days later to set up a phone screening. I had already talked to someone at the company who helped my application. Two days after the phone screening, I was asked to interview on Skype with two people. The interview itself seemed to go well, but the company's follow-up was really unprofessional. I waited two weeks to check in and was told they were figuring out staffing needs due to changes in the division and would decide soon. It's now been over a month since I interviewed, and I haven't even received an email saying they chose someone else or stopped hiring for the role. I'm pretty disappointed.
- What's your strategy for managing multiple deadlines at once?
- What makes you interested in this particular position?
- What attracts you to Meridian specifically?
Program Associate
I applied on their website and they called me for a phone interview a few days later. It was a pretty standard interview. The interviewer mentioned that there's no potential for advancement in this role, which felt like a typical desk job involving filing and taking calls. The company seemed to think highly of itself, but honestly, I got the impression they don't actually do much. I was ghosted after the interview, which I found really unprofessional, especially since I thought I did well. They had a really arrogant vibe.
- Can you describe how you organize things?
Intern
First, send in your resume. If they like it, they'll email you to set up a 1:1 interview. Make sure to be on time and do some research. You should know what's happening in the world and about cross-cultural communication or interaction. Talk about your travel experiences abroad or times you interacted with someone from a different culture.
- What is your understanding of cultural diplomacy?
