Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Save the Children US.
Coordinator
There were 3 rounds for the Coordinator position. First, a quick 15-20 minute call with HR to get basic info. Then, a panel interview with the manager and team to talk about the role and my experience. Finally, another panel interview with the manager and department head to discuss how I'd contribute overall. These interviews were super educational! We mostly chatted about the position, how it fits with others, and the department's goals. It was intense for a Coordinator role, but the team and work are also top-notch, so it makes sense. The interviewers were great, really helpful and explained everything, making me feel comfortable. They made sure I got what the job was about. It was eye-opening and gave me a real feel for the organization and department. I got to ask questions too.
- Tell me about your interest in this role and what makes you a strong candidate.
- Could you describe your understanding of the responsibilities involved in this job?
- What relevant experience do you have regarding [specific task from job description]?
Coordinator
They were fast to respond and very attentive. The team I interviewed with seemed to be very interested and were able to explain the question thoroughly. I think it went smoothly.
- Could you tell me about the databases you have experience with?
Program Coordinator
The first interview, HR almost forgot about the call. The second interview went fine and I submitted the documents they asked for. They said it would take a week to decide, but when I didn't hear back, they said they were still deciding. I emailed again and got the same response. HR never got back to me with a decision.
- Can you tell me about your experience in education?
