First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Physicians for Human Rights.
Advocacy Associate
This role has been open for a while, possibly indicating high turnover or low priority. The interview process seemed to confirm this. After a month of no response to my application, I had an initial interview with HR. Then, a month and a half later, I interviewed with the deputy director. The interview itself was standard and I felt prepared. However, they stopped responding after I followed up, showing disorganization and a lack of respect for candidates' time.
- Could you introduce yourself briefly?
Communications Specialist
The interview process started with a phone screen and then moved to a panel interview. They asked straightforward questions about skills and interest in the field, and also about working alone and with others. They suggested reading up on their work and checking out their digital channels beforehand.
- Can you share an instance where you took initiative?
- What skills do you possess that are relevant to this role?
- What aspects of this field interest you?
Communications Associate
I had a quick phone call to get things started. It felt really structured and pretty standard. I might have been a bit too open about my salary hopes though. Still, it was cool to get an interview after just sending in an application and I liked that they were straight up about everything from the jump.

- Could you share some details about your professional background?
- What are your salary expectations?
Researcher
About 2 weeks after I applied, I got contacted to set up a phone interview. Three people from the company were on the call and it went for about 40 minutes. The questions were about my background, my work history, why I'm interested in this company, and my language skills. I got to ask them questions too at the end.
- What prompted your interest in our company?
