First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Peace Corps.
English Teacher
The interview was pretty straightforward! They gave me all the questions ahead of time, so there's really no excuse for not having the answers ready. The one thing I'd suggest is to make sure you write out and plan the different experiences you want to talk about with the interviewer. I ended up using the same experience multiple times, which made it a bit difficult to articulate my responses clearly.
- Can you describe a situation where you would end your service?
- Tell me about a time you successfully shared knowledge or a skill with someone unlike yourself.
- What insights did you gain into your interpersonal abilities from this experience?
English Teacher
It was a very intensive interview process! I didn't feel like it was a super effective interview because the questions were really basic and not very comprehensive. It was a bit awkward too because the interviewer didn't really react or respond to my questions, so it was hard to get a sense of how I was doing. It wasn't particularly difficult though, just a long process.
- Can you share an experience of living or working with a different culture?
Instructor
The interview process was straightforward. Be relaxed and prepare only for the questions they provide you with, as they share all of them beforehand. The interviewer was pleasant and understanding when my video call failed, switching us to a phone call instead. The interviewer noted this is a frequent occurrence for them, so try not to worry if it happens to you.
